Daniel Gracie taps out Abmar Barbosa by armbar at “Ultimate Absolute” – VIDEO
This past weekend here in NYC, the inaugural 16-man “Ultimate Absolute” no-gi grappling tournament went down and Team Fight Nerd was there to get the results. Through this week, and probably into the weekend, we will be posting full-videos of most of the event. I say most since we had camera issues during the first half, but thats only the opening fights, we got the final eight and that’s where things really picked up.
Our first match is from the opening rounds, where Abmar Barbosa fought against Daniel Gracie, ending with a slick armbar and allowing Gracie to move on to the next round! A Gracie winning by armbar, I don’t think I’ve ever seen that happen before in the history of MMA… cough (sarcasm). Come back later through the week for more of these amazing grappling matches!
