No Gi Jiu-Jitsu World Champion: Frank Richmond


Frank is the No Gi Jiu-Jitsu WORLD 

CHAMPION!!
November 7, 2010

 
Frank competed in the No Gi Jiu-Jitsu World Championships and won all five matches to be crowned Adult Blue Medium-Heavyweight World Champion. Although this was his first competition to ever compete in Jiu-Jitsu, he looked like a seasoned veteran as his instincts kicked in, controlling and countering his opponents on his feet and on the ground. Winning his first match with an outstanding decision, he went on to submit his next opponent with a kimura lock. After injuring his knee in his second match he continued to beat competitors from Brazilian Top Team, CheckMat BJJ, Spa City BJJ, and the 2010 No-gi Pan-American Champion in the finals! Frank it a math teacher and wrestling coach at Vista del Lago High School in Folsom, CA. The tournament was hosted at CSU Long Beach in the Pyramid Center.
