Main Event
200lbs Black Belt Gi
Alexandre Ribeiro vs Gabriel Almeida

Prepare to have a fiery match on your screen with the Fight 2 Win 145 main event. BJJ legend Xande Ribeiro will be a heavy favorite here and should be praised for stepping up against a lesser ranked, yet very, very dangerous opponent, Checkmat’s dynamic medium-heavyweight – Gabriel Almeida.

For those unfamiliar with Almeida, he holds wins over solid opposition such as Lucas Hulk, Roberto Jimenez, Ronaldo Junior, Jake Watson, Henrique Cardoso, and more. Gabriel had one of the best matches of the year against Jimenez back in F2W 140 and should not be taken lightly by the 2x open weight champ.

Both athletes are very complete, working well from top and bottom. Ribeiro will have the size advantage and is widely regarded as one of the most technical competitors the sport has ever known. Almeida, on the other hand, is more dynamic and if allowed to push the pace, could bring the upset. Very exciting match.

Garry Tonon vs Osvaldo “Queixinho” Moizinho

First thing’s first, congratulations to the match-makers of F2W. This is the type of “out of the box” match-up that makes super-fight events interesting. The level of experience on the mats for this clash is uncanny, and the fact that these two have never met before in their lengthy careers was tragic – up until now.

Two completely different styles of grappling, Osvaldo has spent most of his career playing with the gi, with Tonon doing the same in no-gi. When on the mats, Moizinho is a master-planner and Tonon a berserker.

Osvaldo is coming in also with the vaster resume, holding 4 titles at the IBJJF World No-Gi Championship. Tonon has the same level of talent but has often fallen short of shiny gold medals in part due to his submission hungry style. Considering that this is a submission-only event, we would say this is a very even match across the board.

170lbs Black Belt Gi
Gilson Nunes vs Vinicius Nunes

Maybe not as well known by the mainstream followers of the sport, Gilson Nunes is a submission-hunting machine. Very highly rated and seasoned competitor who we’ve been happy to follow over the past few years. Vinicius we know less of, but know he is very active in the Northern California circuit with solid wins in the F2W, IBJJF, and BJJ Tour circuits.
