Rafael Formiga Barbosa is one of the most seasoned and awarded BJJ Competitors of all time. Getting his black belt at only 19 years old... and competing since he was a 11 in the ADULT division makes him one of the toughest competitors on the mat.

This is the final battle for a $5,000 Cash Prize with BJJ Open. If you know Formiga, when there's money on the line... he guuunna get his money... and move to Texas ;)
It's one of the most exciting BJJ Matches you will ever see!
Formiga has one the most incredible butterfly guards in the world. His ability to always find a hook and get back to guard is insane, and evident by that match! He has a lot of attacks from the butterfly guard including a ton of sweeps and submissions.
He's a got a great look choke and arm bar from butterfly guard as well. Not only are his sweeps and submissions awesome, but what's really cool about Formiga's guard is how he sets up his attack. It's a very slippery and fluid game. Formiga makes Jiu Jitsu look easy.
