Road to Gold: Mateo Cardona Submits His Way Through Brown Belt Pans
Over the past few years, AOJ's Mateo Cardona has emerged as one of the brightest prospects in all of jiu-jitsu. He's got all the hallmarks of a future champion black belt and continues to rack up impressive performances as a colored belt. At 2025 Pans, he dominated the field with all submissions in the lightweight division at brown belt. Watch out for Cardona, he will soon be one of the sharks in the waters of the black belt brackets and if days like this are any indication he might be a serious contender already.
