22 year old Rayron Gracie just made a big impression in his first year as a black belt…
As he beat none other than the BJJ World Champion Fellipe Andrew!
The match that took place between the two outstanding athletes was the one at the Abu Dhabi Extreme Championship 3 (ADXC 3) – the event’s Main Jiu-Jitsu event, specifically.
Accompanied by his uncle Renzo and cousin Gregor, Rayron faced and submitted the favorite Fellipe Andrew in the light heavyweight match.

In the first two rounds, Fellipe worked from the guard while Rayron pressured from above, in the best Roger Gracie style with firm grips.
In the third round, Fellipe opened up the game a little more and tried some takedowns, but the decisive moment came about in the following round.
After a beautiful takedown by Rayron, Fellipe managed to avoid a guard pass, but the Gracie representative quickly grabbed the collar and choked Fellipe to end the bout!
