Today we focus on one of the most exciting bouts on the Grapplefest main card – Dante Leon vs Mateusz Szczecinski.
Dante is a 6 x IBJJF World Champion and a UAEJJF World Champion. He has achieved world championship status at every belt colour ranking, something very few of us will ever achieve.
I caught up with Dante earlier in the week, and this is what he had to say:
”I am 26 years old and fighting out of Adamas Jiu Jitsu in Toledo Ohio, representing Pedigo Submission Fighting...
…Coming into this tournament I am feeling great. I know Mateusz is a dangerous opponent so I have sought out some of the best in preparation for him. I have a lot of guys in my facility and at Daisy Fresh who can emulate his game and they have helped tremendously...
Physical preparation and nutrition is on point. As always, I will be taking these next few weeks to tighten everything up and become my best version.
The build up for this show has been huge!!
Daisy fresh vs Europe is an amazing concept and will help showcase some of the teams and young talent!”
Dante on His Favourite/Signature Move
”My favourite move is constantly changing but it’s no secret I love to take the back and finish, rear naked choke being my biggest weapon from the back”
Dante on the Future of His Jiu Jitsu
”As for the future Everything begins and ends with ADCC 2022 for the next 8 months That’s the goal and I am on a mission”
