In a sport where athletes fret over sweating out every possible ounce in order to gain an advantage over the competition, Andre Galvao is one of the few people who buck the trend.
A natural middle heavyweight (88.3kg / 195lb), the Atos co-founder went up THREE weight classes at the 2016 IBJJF Pans to thrown down with the big boys of the ultra heavyweight division (100.5kg+ / 220lb+).
