- Former Strikeforce fighter Andre Galvao has been disqualified from the Mundials while coaching one of his students. Due to IBJJF rules Galvao is now banned from the venue and thus will not be able to compete either in his weight-class or the absolutes later this weekend.
Galvao was one of the favorites to win both the Medium-Heavyweight class and the Absolute.
The incident occurred when Galvao was coaching Denilson Bischiliari in a purple belt match. Denlison was grappling with Marcio Andre of Nova Uniao. The match was tied until the referee issued a 2-point penalty to Denilson and giving the match to his opponent. Galvao and Frazatoo became upset and jumped the barricade that separates coaches and spectators from the competitors to protest.
According to IBJJF that warrants an immediate ejection. Sounds like some BS | |
