2015 Worlds: Buchecha gets hurt and is out; Faria vs. Trans; Elias vs. Obelenyte in the open class finals

selo_hayabusaThe black belt open class finals for the 2015 Worlds have been defined.

The first defining moment in the male bracket was the quarterfinals match between Marcus Buchecha and Ricardo Evangelista.

Winning 4-2 but behind in the advantages, Buchecha could not resist a last attempt of sweeping by Evangelista and ended up giving up the two points.

Worst than that, Buchecha twisted his left knee and is out of the 2015 Worlds.

Trans got to the semifinal after beating Gustavo Elias 6-0 and then outscoring Murilo Santana 2-0.
