He moved up in weight class and finished his opponent in the final.
While he’s waiting for his next engagement under One Championship to be scheduled, Herbert Burns continues to collect bling in no-gi grappling. Following his Miami Open victory last month, last Saturday he went to Jacksonville, Florida to win another title.
Burns won the North American Grappling Association’s 77kg belt as he ended the final via calf slicer. “I was enrolled in the 70kg division, but there were no opponents, so I moved up,” he said afterwards. “I finished my fight quickly, in under a minute, to take the belt.”
You can watch Burns’s submission in this video.
