The Fight To Win (F2W) tournaments are in full swing in the last couple of months! After an exciting last edition which took place in September, it’s now time for Fight To Win 186 to take the center-stage.
This No Gi competition will take place on October 29 (Friday). And it’s just been announced who will be featured in the title fight: Elisabeth Clay vs. Thamara Ferreira!

Ferreira is an European Open black belt champion who holds wins against top-ranking athletes, such as Claudia do Val, Kendall Reusing and Gabi McComb. But even though these successes came in the Gi, Ferreira is more than comfortable in performing at a top level in No Gi as well. For example, she recently showcased her intensely high-paced skills in a match against Beatriz Mesquita at BJJ Stars.
Clay, on the other hand, is more experienced in No Gi grappling than her opponent is. She won double gold at this year’s No Gi Pans and a gold at No Gi World Championships. She also never lost a match at a Fight To Win promotion… So it’ll be interesting to watch how this Fight To Win 186 match will go down!
