HEAVYWEIGHT
Marcio “Pe de Pano” Cruz
played on bottom and
managed a sweep within the
final 30 seconds of the match
to outscore Gabriel Napao 2-0
and retain his title.
WELTERWEIGHT
Vitor Shaolin showed he’s still on
top of his game after making short
work of Kenny Florian. Shaolin
sunk in a clock choke while Florian
was attempting to progress with
a single-leg sweep: the American
ending up going to sleep, handing
Vitor the belt.
MIDDLEWEIGHT
Amaury Bitetti managed two
advantages against one scored by
Roberto Traven to become the first
ever middleweight champion.
LIGHTWEIGHT
Alexandre Soca paced
himself until the right
moment to sweep Baret
Yoshida and score the two
points that secured his
win, keeping his belt for a
further year.
BANTAMWEIGHT
Wellington ‘Megaton’ Dias had
waited more than 20 years for this
rematch, and with it a chance to
avenge his 1996 defeat to Helio
Soneca. Unfortunately for ‘Mega’,
Soneca was once again able to find
his way to victory via a sweep and
a 2-0 lead.
