The graduation party for Professor Luiz Manimal in Rio was special.
The master of giants like Raphael Abi-Rihan and other stars received his fifth degree in black belt by the grandmaster Carlos Robson Gracie in December.
“I’m very honored for having received the blue, purple, brown, and black belts from three masters: Carlos Gracie Junior, Carlson Gracie, and Robson Gracie!” said Manimal to GRACIEMAG.com. “Today, when receiving the degree from Master Robson I really felt the energy of my eternal master Carlson Gracie present. Ossss!”
