We have the bracket for the women’s brown belt absolute at 2025 IBJJF Pans and it’s a major one. Helena Crevar, Sarah Galvão, and Lillian Marchand headlined the field vying for absolute glory and only one can emerge as the champion. Catch every monumental match between these young prodigies exclusively on FloGrappling, starting soon at 5pm ET.

The IBJJF Pan Championships kick off this week and there's always a lot to enjoy. There are many top black belts ready to compete on Saturday and Sunday but we will also get a good look at the colored belt divisions. These blue, purple, and brown belt divisions are packed with young talented competitors who will one day be the top black belts in the game. Every once in a while, though, a class comes through that stands as more impressive than usual.

Marcado para o dia 18 de abril, o Who's Number One 27 traz mais um duelo eletrizante para o seu próximo evento, que acontece no Kalahari Convention Center, na cidade texana de Round Rock. Integrando o card principal do evento, a atual campeã do peso-pena Elisabeth Clay chega com tudo para encarar a talentosa Helena Crevar em duelo que vale o título da categoria.

Elisabeth Clay is set to defend her WNO Featherweight Championship against Helena Crevar at WNO 27, April 18th in Round Rock, TX. Clay and Crevar are two of the top women in all of grappling and they will now face off in 15-minute submission only rules to determine who is the best. The evening will be headlined by ADCC Absolute Champion Kaynan Duarte taking on CJI Champion Nick Rodriguez in a heavyweight main event that is the biggest match in WNO history.

With 2024 coming to a close, it's time to reflect on one of the biggest years in grappling history. There was so much great action and so many elite athletes putting on incredible performances that we expanded our pool of nominees to eight - eight women who have risen above the field to be nominated for grappler of the year

BJJ Phenom and ADCC Medalist Helena Crevar has been promoted to brown belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu by her Professor John Danaher over the weekend, another step in her journey to the top of the grappling world. Crevar has had a busy 2024, winning gold medals and setting records and now she will get a fresh opportunity in her gi competitions in 2025.

Teenage phenom Helena Crevar continued the strong start to her WNO career when she outlasted Leilani Bernales in a 15-minute judge's decision on Dec. 4 at the Bayou Music Center in Houston during WNO 25.

WNO 25 in Houston on Dec. 4 will feature fighters of all shapes and sizes, both men and women, and the whole night at the Bayou Music Center should make for another memorable installment in the legacy of the Who’s Number One franchise.

Marcado para chegar ao Bayou Music Center na cidade texana de Houston no dia 4 de dezembro, o WNO 25 promete trazer mais um card explosivo para fazer a alegria dos fãs da arte suave. Com alguns dos principais nomes do Jiu-Jitsu sem kimono prontos para mostrar suas habilidades no evento, a organização anunciou em suas redes sociais mais um duelo, revelando que Helena Crevar e Leilani Bernales irão se encarar na divisão de peso-pena do torneio.

ADCC's youngest medalist ever is ready to return to the WNO stage when Helena Crevar takes on world-ranked opponent Leilani Bernales in super fight action at WNO 25: Duarte vs Jimenez. Helena had an incredible 2024, winning silver in the -65kg division in what is the youngest medalist performance in history. She will take on Bernales, who has been a consistent threat to the elite in the no-gi scene.

The -65kg Women's weight class at the 2024 ADCC World Championships is shaping up to be one of the most competitive divisions.

ADCC is where we saw the heel hook really evolve into the dominant submission hold we see today and where leg locking truly became an art. Now, every competitor needs to have serious skill in recognizing and defending leg locks or they risk losing (and potentially losing very quickly).

The ADCC World Championships are approaching fast, and the -65kg women's division is now complete with 8 standout grapplers who will vye for gold in this new weight class. With division expanding from 2 to 3 and the addition of an absolute, this stands to be the biggest ADCC ever for the women athletes.

A king, A hulk, a baby shark and a teenage phenomenon are all headed to WNO 21 in November 2023.

The upcoming Tezos WNO 21: Marinho vs Lovato card will feature Gordon's junior teammate Helena Crevar facing ADCC World Championship veteran Julia Maele. The 145lb bout will be Crevar's second under the WNO banner after her successful debut at WNO 19, and mark the debut of Norwegian grappler Julia Maele.
