From the Pan Ams, to the Mundials World Jiu Jitsu Competition, this year’s black belts have been taking on the 2012 Jiu Jitsu competition season with no fear and with no mercy for their opponents. And if you were lucky enough to catch this year’s Mundial Finals, you would understand exactly what we are talking about. Of course, Black Belt Jiu Jitsu finals at Worlds are always intense, but this year competition was so fierce that many of the matches ended with a dead even score, or with a victory being pulled out at the last remaining second of the match. Truly nail-biting stuff happening here!
With the results in for the majority of the 2012 season, we are posting our updated 2012 Jiu Jitsu Black Belt Competitor Rankings. This includes all IBJJF tournaments thus far, including the BJJ Pan American Championship, as well as the Mundials World Championships, both taking place in Southern California. The remaining competitor points were earned at IBJJF Opens so far this year. So if you are not happy with your rank and want to boost it up a bit more, check out the remaining opportunities you have for this year to put your score higher on this year’s rankings.
