Evangelista squeezes to win the absolute title.
A double champion at the 2019 Master International Jiu-Jitsu IBJJF Championship Europe, held this month, Ricardo Evangelista saw and seized and opportunity to put into practice a swift, surprising submission on his way to winning the absolute.
Fighting Sadayoshi Kurimori (Infight Switzerland), Ricardo got to work from the top, seeking spaces against his opponent’s guard. But as he approached, the GFTeam representative visualized an attack on the foot left over from the guard pass attempt. He didn’t think twice, going for the straight foot lock, lying down to get it even tighter.
