São Paulo Brazilian Grand Prix

Another successful trip for the GB VI Squad!!

After a mammoth 12 hour flight we arrived in the busy city tired and hot but ready to fight! 

I had the pleasure of fighting 2 Brazilians, one of whom won the Bronze at the World  Champs in Colorado so he is quite tasty! I nearly had him on a few occasions but unfortunately he managed to edge the win. His compatriot however got thrown by me in about 10 seconds!

So a silver medal for me, Chris and Jono got gold and Nat got bronze. 4/4 medals and we came second overall on the medal table!

We had a 4 day training camp after the competition which was really good but man was it hot out there! Good to start acclimatising ready for next year though! 

Next stop is a week in Edinburgh then a long weekend in Germany. Next update will be after the European Open in Germany.
