Hillary as a purple belt at last year's world championship
Brown belt Hillary Williams overcame Carol De Lazzer by judges’ decision after a 1 to 1 draw in advantage points, after an electrifying bout of grappling.
“She’s a great wrestler, a great judoka; she’s great at everything. My plan really was to pull guard. I still can’t believe I won; she’s probably stronger than you are,” the champion told Budovideos.com.
Congratulations on your first world title in the top flight, Ms. Williams!
