“Daniel is a student of Felipe Souza at BJJ School UK, an affiliate of my Jiu-Jitsu school in Brazil,” says a joyous José Henrique “Zé Beleza” Leão Teixeira.

“As it happens, in England we have the same Future Champions goodwill project, and Daniel Agard comes from that project. He’s a really dedicated kid, always trains a lot and deserves this win. I’ll show up at the Worlds with him and some others…” promises the Master.
