Valentino Petrescu (Team Ryu/Gracie Barra Braulio)takes gold in his weight division (white) and takes silver in the open class (white/blue).
over the past 3 comps - europeans, bristol and now the WPJJC valentino has taken gold in his weight division..well done bro...wish i could of been there..see ya soon

[zefff]

Awesome facility! Some slick judo on show, real tough guys turned up. Some monster White belts who put on a high level display.

One of our white belt guys who refused to take gold in Bristol ( after a little mix up) for the opportunity to fight a blue belt and ended up with silver, put in a great effort. Attacked constantly in the final and got robbed on a refs decision...dunno what he had against us but that's how it goes, maybe the other guy was Spanish??

We had another guy get silver in his cat and I spoke to a 100kg guy from pedro bessa but dunno how he finished. I lost in the third round, I think I got a bronze but we had a plane to catch so couldn't stay for the absolutes as the comp ran over a little  crazy experience! Trust me, fly-fight-fly doesn't work!
