The brown belt division is know for reserving some serious thrills to whoever pays attention to the upcoming talents featured there.
Here’s another great example of that, when Mahamed Aly and Jared Dopp met in the first round of the ultra-heavyweight division.
Mahamed is the current brown belt open class world champion and Jared, a no-gi world champion himself, just returned from a silver-medal campaign at the +99kg division of the 2015 ADCC.
Aly called it the “best no-gi match of his entire career”.
Dopp was not happy with the final outcome.
This was their second encounter in Dallas.
Saturday, in the gi, Dopp beat Mahamed with a last minute takedown (click here to watch).
Watch and see how it played out.
