## Bio

A product of Brasa under Robert Drysdale and Felipe Vidal, Abmar Barbosa earned his black belt in August 2008 after moving to the United States. He made his biggest competitive mark at the 2010 Pan Americans, where he shocked the bracket by defeating Kron Gracie 11-0 in the opening round and then submitting Lucas Leite, ultimately finishing as runner-up. With over forty titles in Jiu-Jitsu, Barbosa opened his own academy, Abmar Barbosa Jiu Jitsu, following a win at the Rickson Gracie Open Cup in Japan. He often credits anger for bringing him to the art but love for keeping him there.
