Gabi Pessanha Signs Up For No-Gi Worlds

In a monumental move for her career, Gabi Pessanha has signed up for the IBJJF World No-Gi Championships. The eight-time World Champion in the gi has been on an unprecedented 144 match unbeaten streak, dominating every major event for years now. This is a highly anticipated move for the InFight black belt.

Gabi announced the move herself on her social media today:

Gabi's division is now 3 people, with both the 2023 world finalist back - Mayara Moreira and Kendall Reusing. Kendall is fresh off of an ADCC medal at +65kg and won this event last year - she will represent a mammoth test for Pessanha in her first event without the gi.

Gabi Pessanha has grown to be the most dominant force in modern jiu-jitsu, having won double gold at every gi major for years now. She has defeated all potential challengers and established herself as the greatest women's black belt to ever compete in the gi.
