Leandro Lo: 2018 Pans Deep Dive

Leandro Lo loves a decent scrap.  

The NS Brotherhood leader continues to rise to the occasion after years of being on top, and this past weekend's IBJJF 2018 Pan Championships in Irvine, California, were no exception. Lo was able to impose his will against Keenan Cornelius, Gutemberg Pereira, Tanner Rice, and more on his way to winning double gold.

Lo doesn't have the same strategy for every opponent—the man just knows how to win. He has an uncanny ability to explode from the bottom and force a sweep, relentless wrestling from the feet, and the passing of a demon. As well rounded as they come, Lo's skills are reflected in his super performance last weekend.
