No último fim de semana no Canadá, a IBJJF organizou mais uma edição do Montreal International Open. E quem se deu bem foi uma fera de Juiz de Fora, da academia BTT.

Leonardo Saggioro, o popular Cascão, foi campeão no peso leve, mas quis mais desafios, e caiu dentro do absoluto. Sua garra foi recompensada, e após final com Lucas Rocha, da GB, Cascão foi coroado com o ouro.

O pódio do absoluto foi completado pelos medalhistas de bronze Leonardo Costa (Tanque Jiu-Jitsu) e Todd Brandon (Soca BJJ).

Já na Alemanha, no sábado 14 de novembro, Jackson Sousa foi o grande rei absoluto do Berlin Open. O faixa-preta da Checkmat ficou com o ouro duplo, ao vencer o peso pesado, contra o checo Jaroslav Moltas (Pitbull).

Na final do absoluto, Jackson Sousa venceu Luca Anacoreta (Aeterna Jiu-Jitsu). No pódio, Allen Causevic (Valko BJJ) e Rodrigo Reis (Tanque Jiu-Jitsu) ficaram com o bronze.
