										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_23411" style="width: 454px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/ALI.jpg"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-23411" class="size-full wp-image-23411" title="ALI" src="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/ALI.jpg" alt="" width="444" height="296" /></a><p id="caption-attachment-23411" class="wp-caption-text">Ali Monfaradi has been making waves. </p></div>
<p>This task of being a “reporter-collaborator” for GRACIEMAG is no easy one. We always try to correspond to the heights Jiu-Jitsu sets for us. We believe the best way to give thanks is to report about occurrences that make the gentle art even greater. However, one needs ideas and to pay a lot of attention to what&#8217;s going on. They say ideas are like cats and not like dogs. There&#8217;s no point calling them, they come when they want. While the question of attention is primordial, we can&#8217;t let the details escape, as they end up being the cherry on top.</p>
<p>There are things so obvious we end up not seeing the need to jot them down. It just that, during the rush cause by anxiousness to send in a red-hot bulletin or article, often we forge the obvious. Or in other words, we don&#8217;t forget the cherry, but the entire cake.</p>
<p>That happened to me this week. In the rush to send in the news on the inaugural Desert Force event in Jordan followed by the Asian Cup in Abu Dhabi, I left out two major figures from both event, who appeared on network television in the Middle East. That&#8217;s right, MMA and Jiu-Jitsu show on broadcast television in the Arab world, guaranteed popularization of combat arts in these parts!</p>
<p>Figure number 1: Zaid Azmi Mirza</p>
<p>Zaid came up with the idea for, promoted, organized, and above all, believed in Desert Force&#8217;s success. Were it not for the momentum of this Jordanian brought up in Brazil, even while suffering the sudden loss of his father, the event would have been nothing more than a blue print. It was a lapse not having mentioned him in the article, but he didn&#8217;t complain. I was the one struck by the absence. The second Desert Force show is already scheduled. Fighters, get your CVs ready.</p>
<p>Figure number 2: Ali Monfradi</p>
<p>The young blue belt from Bahrain of just seventeen years of age is a fixture at tournaments in Abu Dhabi. He&#8217;s been surprising folks at local competitions ever since he was fifteen. His refined technique, flexibility, and now strength have a number of black belts pointing to him as being the next major promise from the Gulf. (He&#8217;s always competed in the adult division). Even my colleage on Emirates Team Pedro Lott, on vacation in Europe, contacted me to call attention: “How could you have left out the kid from Bahrain?”</p>
<p>Things brought about when you get run over by happenings. It was a tumultuous end of the year, lots happened. But we try to offer the maximum of information, but the maximum doesn&#8217;t fit on the page or in the memory. So we go telling the story of the gentle art and its figures little by little, from A to Z. Better yet; from Ali to Zaid.</p>
<p>There will be more to come next year, whether in <a href="http://shop.graciemag.com">GRACIEMAG magazine </a>or on GRACIEMAG.com!</p>The post <a href="https://www.graciemag.com/two-important-figures-at-desert-force-and-asian-cup/">Two important figures at Desert Force and Asian Cup</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.graciemag.com">Graciemag</a>.]]></content:encoded>

<p>Essa função de “repórter-colaborador” da GRACIEMAG não é fácil. Tentamos sempre corresponder a altura do que o Jiu-Jitsu nos proporciona. Acreditamos que é uma boa forma de agradecimento relatar acontecimentos que engrandecem ainda mais a arte suave. Porém, é preciso idéias e muita atenção ao que ocorre. Dizem que idéia é como gato e não como cão. Não adianta chamar, ela vem quando quer. Já o quesito atenção é primordial, não podemos deixar escapar detalhes que acabam sendo a cereja do bolo.</p>
<p>Existem coisas que são tão óbvias que acabamos não vendo a necessidade de anotar no bloquinho. Só que, na correria causada pela ansiedade de mandar uma noticia fresquinha ou um artigo, muitas vezes esquecemos do óbvio. Ou seja, não esquecemos da cereja, mas do bolo.</p>
<p>Isso me aconteceu esta semana. Na correria de noticiar a primeira edição do Desert Force na Jordânia e em seguida o Asian Cup, em Abu Dhabi, acabei não mencionando dois grandes personagens de ambos os eventos, que marcaram presença nos canais abertos do Oriente Médio. Isso mesmo, MMA e Jiu-Jitsu no mundo árabe passa em canal aberto, popularização certa dos esportes de luta aqui!</p>
<p>Personagem número 1: Zaid Azmi Mirza.</p>
<p>Zaid idealizou, promoveu, organizou e, acima de tudo, acreditou no sucesso do Desert Force. Se não fosse o ímpeto deste jordaniano criado no Brasil, mesmo sofrendo com a morte repentina do pai, o evento não teria saído do papel. Foi um lapso não citá-lo na</p>
<p>matéria, mas o mesmo não reclamou. Eu mesmo me dei conta da falta. A segunda edição do Desert Force já está programada. Lutadores preparem seus currículos.</p>
<p>Personagem número 2: Ali Monfaradi.</p>
<p>O jovem faixa-azul do Bahrein, de apenas 17 anos, é presença certa nos torneios em Abu Dhabi. Desde seus 15 anos surpreende nas competições locais. Sua técnica refinada, elasticidade e agora força fazem com que seja apontado por diversos faixas-pretas como a maior promessa do Golfo. (Ele sempre lutou na categoria adulto). Até meu colega no Emirates Team, Pedro Lott, de férias na Europa, entrou em contato para me chamar a atenção: “Como você esqueceu do garoto do Bahrein?”</p>
<p>Coisas que o atropelo de acontecimentos proporciona. Foi um final de ano tumultuado, muita coisa aconteceu. Mas tentamos informar o máximo, mas o máximo é incabível na página e na memória. Então vamos aos poucos contando a história da arte suave e de seus personagens, de A a Z. Ou melhor; de Ali a Zaid.</p>
<p>Ano que vem tem mais, seja na revista GRACIEMAG ou no GRACIEMAG.com!</p>The post <a href="https://www.graciemag.com/dois-personagens-importantes-no-desert-force-e-asian-cup/">Dois personagens importantes no Desert Force e Asian Cup</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.graciemag.com">Graciemag</a>.]]></content:encoded>

Photo: publicity.</p></div>
<p>On the same week the Fifa World Club Cup kicked off, the Asian Super Cup began nearby at the Abu Dhabi Combat Club, this time including No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu matches as there will be at the next World Pro, in April.</p>
<p>So soccer ended up sharing television time with the broadcast of a live Jiu-Jitsu tournament.</p>
<p>Besides the athletes from the capital Abu Dhabi, the cup featured fighters who train in Dubai, like those from the Emirates JJ Center academy led by black belt Rafael Haubert, and other countries around the region. Teams from Jordan, Morocco, Bahrain, Kuwait, Omman, and Saudi Arabia showcased their technique at the tourney and brought a balance of power to Jiu-Jitsu in the Middle East.</p>
<p>In the brown-and-black belt division, Emirates Team&#8217;s Brazilian reigned supreme, in the finals of every category. The standouts were Edmilson Conceição, Oscar Junior, Michel Maia, Samuel Herzog and Fernando Cosendey.</p>
<p>In the white-and-blue belt division, Wessam Mutie (Jordan) had twenty-six matches over the two days and took two gold and two silver medals. Another standout from Jordan was the young Abdullah Nabas, who impressed everyone with his grit in facing much bigger athletes in the absolute, as well as hometown boy Ali Salem, who displayed awesome takedown ability.</p>
<p>At purple, a round of applause for Abu Dhabi&#8217;s athletes Taileb Rumait, Mohammad Nasser, Faisal Fahad Al Qitbi, and to Palestine&#8217;s Gabriel Tayeh and Jordan&#8217;s Haider Hashem. Tayeh, my nephew, just had an MMA fight in Jordan and returned to doing well in Jiu-Jitsu.</p>
<p>Check out part of the Abu Dhabi Sport TV broadcast with the blue belt absolute final between Jordan&#8217;s Abdallah Nabas (68 kg) and Morocco&#8217;s Abdallah Alaooi (110 kg), a judo black belt and champion of Africa.</p>

<p>Na mesma semana que começava o Mundial Interclubes da Fifa, realizou-se nas depedências do Abu Dhabi Combat Club mais uma edição do Asian Super Cup, desta vez tendo embates também sem kimono como previsto para o próximo World Pro em abril.</p>
<p>O futebol então acabou dividindo espaço na televisão com a transmissão ao vivo do torneio de Jiu-Jitsu.</p>
<p>Além dos atletas da capital Abu Dhabi, a copa contou com lutadores que treinam em Dubai, como da academia Emirates JJ Center comandada pelo faixa-preta Rafael Haubert, e de outros países da região. Equipes da Jordânia, Marrocos, Bahreim, Kuwait, Omã e Arábia Saudita mostraram sua técnica no torneio e trouxe equilibrio de forças para o Jiu-Jitsu no Oriente Médio.</p>
<p>Nas faixas marrom e preta, supremacia dos brasileiros do Emirates Team que decidiram em casa todas categorias. Destacando-se Edmilson Conceição, Oscar Junior, Michel Maia, Samuel Herzog e Fernando Cosendey.</p>
<p>Nas faixas branca e azul, Wessam Mutie (Jordânia) fez 26 lutas nos dois dias e faturou duas medalhas de ouro e duas de prata. Outro destaque da Jordânia foi o jovem Abdullah Nabas, que impressionou a todos pela raça ao enfrentar atletas bem maiores no absoluto, além do local Ali Salem, que exibiu ótimas quedas.</p>
<p>Na roxa, aplauosos para os atletas de Abu Dhabi Taileb Rumait, Mohamad Nasser, Faisal Fahad Al Qitbi, e para o palestino Gabriel Tayeh e o jordaniano Haider Hashem. Tayeh, meu sobrinho, acabara de lutar MMA na Jordânia e voltou a se dar bem.</p>
<p>Confira, abaixo, parte da transmissão da Abu Dhabi Sport TV com a luta final do absoluto azul entre o jordaniano Abdallah Nabas (68kg) e o marroquino Abdallah Alaooi (110kg), faixa-preta de judô e campeão africano.</p>
