An event that has captured the gentle-art world’s imagination for the new rules and enticing matchups, Metamoris Pro has taken a hit and had to cancel a bout.
Gracie Barra professor Nelson Monteiro will no longer be facing Jean Jacques Machado on the coming 14th, due to a suffering a car accident two weeks back. According to the event promoters, Nelson was planning to start training this week but was unable to do so because he is still recovering. The showdown with his ADCC-veteran counterpart Machado has thus been removed from the card.
GRACIEMAG.com wishes the black belt a speedy recovery.
What do you say, gentle reader, which will be the best match on the card for the San Diego event?
