Main Event: Tracey Goodell (CJJF) vs Rita Gribben (Gracie Humaita) - 125lbs Female Black Belt GI
Tracey Goodell has returned with a vengeance to the professional grappling circuit. After a few years absence of the competition scene, the first-ever female Hawaiian black belt went 2-0 with two submissions, in the process securing the award for Fight 2 Win 2018 female black belt of the year.
Facing Goodell and venturing into enemy territory is San Diego based Canadian athlete Rita Gribben; Gribben was promoted to black belt last summer after worlds as; she recently lost a close split decision match to NorCal standout Kristina Barlaan and is surely hungry to get back into the winner's circle.
Bilal Ahmad (Gracie Barra) vs Kim Terra (CTA) - 155lbs Black Belt Gi
We're always pumped to see Kim Terra compete.
The younger brother of Caio, Kim Terra's game is a bit more explosive than his ultra-technical brother. Kim recently moved to Hawaii and has been quietly honing his game in paradise. Look out for his nasty footlocks and elite guard passing.
Bilal Ahmad is a bit of a wildcard in this match; we do know that he received his black belt in February last year and is an instructor on the island at Gracie Barra. We're curious to see what this wild card can do against a seasoned pro like Terra.
Chris Leben (Barret Submissions) vs Troy Everett(Mile High Gracie) - 215 No-Gi
Chris 'the crippler' Leben is making his Fight 2 Win debut! A pioneer of MMA hailing from San Diego, Leben has been involved with combat sports since the early 2000's and is a regular competitor at IBJJF competitions. It's no secret that Leben's game is submission oriented and we imagined that the crippler will want to stay on top and grind out the victory.
Leben has no easy task in front of him though, and he'll be taking on #TeamNoSLeep member and Fight 2 Win regularly Troy 'the night Piegon' Everett. Everret's jiu-jitsu is just as savage as his nickname, and he hours of experience on the Fight 2 Win Stage. Look for lots of submission attempts from all angles from this athelte.
