Gianni Grippo’s impressive 2018 keeps going from strength to strength.
This past weekend, Kasai Pro put on one of the most stacked tournaments of the year, which featured a who’s who of the grappling world and it was enjoyable throughout. The field included 10th Planet star Geo Martinez, Danaher Death Squad’s Frank Rosenthal and former world champion Paulo Miyao, but it was Marcelo Garcia protege Gianni Grippo who ended up taking home the gold.
Grippo managed to secure a sweep in the dying moments of his finals match against Miyao to earn himself the Kasai Pro Featherweight title.
