Mike Reay’s Journey to Gold
At the recent IBJJF London Open, Coach Mike entered his division determined to represent LOBO BJJ at the highest level. In three intense matches, Mike’s technical mastery was on full display. He secured decisive points victories in his first two fights, demonstrating superior control and strategy. In the final, Mike finished with a rapid submission, earning the gold medal and cementing his status as one of the top BJJ competitors in the region.
Success in the Absolute Division
Not stopping there, Mike entered the open weight (absolute) division, where he faced off against much larger opponents—including a super heavyweight in his opening match. Mike’s experience and technique paid off as he won his first absolute match, proving that BJJ is truly about leverage and skill, not just size. In the semifinals, Mike faced a tough competitor and ultimately took home a well-deserved bronze medal.
