Adolfo Santiago Duárez became this weekend the champion of the Venezuelan Circuit of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CVBJJ) held at the "Papá" Carrillo gym in Parque Miranda.
This is the first time that the athlete competed in the country after a seven-year absence because he focused his career on the mats in the United States and Europe.
'Adolfito' on his return participated in the black belt category, where he remained as absolute champion.
"It is one of the best experiences that I have lived here in Venezuela at the Jiu-Jitsu level, it is an honor to return to my country, to be able to participate and see how this sport has grown," said Suárez.
