Mica recently won the WNO championship at WNO 20 in a one-night tournament where he defeated Jay Rodriguez and PJ Barch back to back, even winning submission of the night for the armbar over Barch. However, that night Galvão was supposed to face Andrew Tackett in the finals and Barch was a replacement athlete. Kody Steele, of Fight Factory, has trained with Andrew since he was a child and now steps into this contendership role while Andrew heals up.

Kody was recently in action at the ADCC East Coast Trials, where he made a huge impression with his physical slams and scrambles. He always brings the action to any mat he is on, and he will attempt to wrench that newly won belt away from Galvao in a little over one month.
