This weekend, one of the most decorated competitors in Jiu Jitsu will make his Fight To Win debut, when Jeff Curran faces the legendary Caio Terra.
Competing in one of the lightest weight classes in BJJ, Terra has never been one to shy away from a challenge and has successfully competed and won open weight divisions in the past, something a lot of his peers in the lighter weight classes shy away from. Terra’s slim frame has led to him develop an extremely efficient and technical Jiu Jitsu style that has brought him success over the past decade and has also made him a devastating submission specialist in Gi and No-Gi competition, winning the bulk of his black belt matches via submission.
Terra’s opponent will be known to MMA fans, Jeff ‘Big Frog’ Curran has been around the sport for a long time, competing in the UFC as well as the WEC and various other promotions throughout his career. Curran is also a third degree black belt under Pedro Sauer, a Rickson Gracie Black Belt and considered one of the most technical teachers of BJJ on the planet.
‘Big Frog’ has 21 Submission wins on his MMA record and with him and Terra being such active submission hunters, don’t expect to see this match go the distance.
