Beatriz Mesquita Says Weight Cut & Wrestling Keys For ADCC Success

Training hard in San Diego, returning champion Beatriz Mesquita gives us an insight into the challenges of her preparation for ADCC 2019, including her weight cut and her wrestling training. 

"Its funny because I'm a lot more confident in no-gi. In the gi it's a lot easier to pull guard, but especially in ADCC if you pull guard you get a penalty, so I'm really focussed on getting all the transitions of single, double to the back. After a few minutes the fight is so slippery, one front roll and you escape anything. But I'm getting some little  details adjusted but I'm pretty much ready to get it."
