Nicholas Meregali is Training for IBJJF 2022 Worlds

Nicholas Meregali, unceremoniously kicked out of the 2021 IBJJF World Championships for unsportsmanlike conduct, has announced he is training for the upcoming 2022 Worlds. Meregali was disqualified from the tournament for flipping off a crowd member during the ultra-heavyweight semifinal against Victor Hugo. Already qualified for the absolute final, he missed out on a match with Felipe Pena as the severity of the penalty removed him from the tournament. Currently training in Austin, Texas under the supervision of John Danaher, Meregali made his no-gi debut on WNO in March. Danaher said on Instagram that Meregali has "one of the most exciting gi games I’ve ever seen, full of technical nuance, some beautiful original moves and that unmistakable Brazilian flair for movement and opportunity that characterizes so many of the top athletes from that nation".
