SEPTEMBER 15, 2019 and the Felix Event Center, in Los Angeles – USA was the perfect backdrop for one of the most important events in jiu-jitsu’s professional circuit. The 7th edition of the King Of Mats, Middleweight Grand Prix, an event that fathered some of the top gi competitors in the world today. Suffering from lack of exposure due to its conflicting calendar date with that of the IBJJF Pan American Championship (NoGi), the KOM did not have a lot of support from the local crowd. Support it clearly deserved, judging by the caliber of competitors on the mats today and the quality of the production.

The event had a few very interesting matches, with Marcos Tinoco, Tommy Langaker and Gustavo Batista leading the way in terms of entertainment value, always pushing for the finish. Out of the two groups of athletes, Group A was undoubtedly the more entertaining to follow.

In the end, the smooth game of Batista cruised through the Grand Prix, with dominant performances from start to finish, with the flexible and dangerous guard of Tommy Langaker being the only barrier to Gustavo’s cruise control dominance. Full match results below.
