New Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro Drops In On Abu Dhabi Grand Slam Rio

New president elect of Brazil Jair Bolsonaro dropped in for a “surprise visit” at the Abu Dhabi Grand Slam Rio tour. The event, a collaboration between the UAEJJF and the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation, has been showcasing some of the best in high belt competition this weekend in Rio.
