In the Brazilian of Jiu-Jitsu, which happened last weekend in Rio de Janeiro, the black belt of Gordo JJ didn’t give chance to his opponents and submitted one by one, until he win the gold medal. After the conquest, the current World Champion spoke with TATAME.com about the submissions and his expectations for the second World Championship in 2009.

 

"The expectation is the best possible. I hope that all the tough guys that exist are fighting and that everyone is there to be champion. The expectation is that, I will be there well prepared and looking for the title too", said Braga Neto, adding that: "I’ll search for the World Championship as if it were the first. I’ll go in search of my eighth gold medal at World Cups and I’ll go after the openweight too. I respect everyone that will be there, but I’m going to be champion", guarantees.
