Gregor Gracie notched the third win of his four-fight MMA career at the Brick City Fighting Championship event held last Saturday in New Jersey, USA.

It didn’t take the Jiu-Jitsu black belt long to submit Mariusz Linke. With a rear-naked choke just 2:13 minutes into the fight, the Gracie was declared the victor.

The event also featured a showdown between teams led by Renzo Gracie and Jorge “Macaco” Patino, which Renzo’s troop won by a score of 4 to 1.

There were some letdowns at the event, though. Igor Gracie failed to pass the exams required by the Athletic Commission and was barred from fighting one day prior to the event. Also, muay thai world champion Cosmo Alexandre ended up not fighting.
