DECEMBER 05, 2020 – Orlando, Florida. As the year approaches its end, F2W continues to lead in the volume of events it produced this year, a trend the well known grappling promotion has accustomed us – jiu-jitsu fans – to, over the years.
CLAY VS GUEDES
Headlining the event was Elisabeth Clay‘s black belt debut against one of Atos’ prominent stars, Rafaela Guedes. The Brazilian athlete has been on top of the world since receiving her black belt in September this year. Clay had a formidable year thus far and, even though it was her debut, many had the Ares standout the favorite to win the main event This favoritism did not materialize as Guedes took the reigns of the match early on, controlling the distance and never allowing the Alaskan a chance to set up her dangerous upper and lower body entanglements. The strategy paid off as Rafaela took home the female middleweight belt in a unanimous decision victory.
NAGAI VS GOMEZ
Another duel that was looked at with great interest was that of Samuel Nagai versus Mauricio Gomez. The young Checkmat phenom was faced with a very game opponent in ATT’s Gomez, an athlete who is always dangerous and always entertaining to watch. Although a fun match on paper, Nagai came out very aggressive and gave no room for Mauricio to breathe or impose any type of game against the frenetic pace of the Manaus native. Once Samuel got a hold of Gomez’s feet it was a wrap, as Nagai applied another powerful “botinha” lock (straight ankle lock with lapel grip) for the tap. Check out the full match results below.
