Having started on the on the 30th of April, ending today 3rd of May, the Brazilian National Championship, or as it is called in Brazil, the Brasileiro de Jiu Jitsu is one of the most popular competitions in the sport’s busy calendar.

Gathering some of jiu jitsu’s most prestigious grapplers, the tournament often suits the most hardcore fans, eager to see who will be the next star to emerge from the sports country of origin, and indeed the new guns came out in droves. This year two newcomers stood out tremendously, they were Erberth Santos (Guigo Jiu Jitsu) and Luan Carvalho (Nova Uniao).

If Erberth has already become a known name in his first few months as a black belt, with medals at the Pan American and European Open, Luan Carvalho has had a quieter path to Brazilian championship glory. The Nova Uniao lightweight had proven to be a tough competitor at the Pan American Championship with fantastic performances against Rodrigo Caporal and AJ Agazarm, raising the bar even higher this weekend by defeating a former world champion in Michael Langhi and Brazilian champion Juan Caio Kamezawa on the same day.

Another memorable figure of the Brazilian Nationals was Joao Gabriel Rocha. One of BJJ’s true heroes, Joao won his battle with cancer by the end of 2014 and is back on top form, beating some top level competition. More details on the “Brasileiro” below.
