Some red tape holding back his US visa may have kept the featherweight out of a dream match with four-time world champion Rubens Cobrinha at the No-Gi World Championship.
But Herbert Burns, 24, the increasingly famous brother of Gilbert Durinho, isn’t looking to issue challenges to anybody. All he wants is to show that he’s got Jiu-Jitsu too.
That’s what he set about proving at the MMA event Only FC, in March of this year. Herbert used a triangle from mount to put away Saulo Eduardo. In making it to mount, though, he showed that the knee-on-belly comes in handy.
