Nick Brooks (the only fighter from M.H.J.J.C to make the journey)
who fights for the Roger Gracie Academy London, Won gold in the
Featherweight Division beating his opponent from Fabrizio Werdums
MW JiuJitsu team by a single advantage, Though he controlled the
fight from beginning to end, Nick also entered the open weight
division not a clever thing to do when you weigh 65 kilos,
But still made it to the Quarter Finals beating the heavyweight
silver medallist Fred Mulmann from the Swiss Morges Team 2 - 0
in the 1st round & the heavyweight Gold medallist Magnus Akerlind
from Brasa in the 2nd Round, Even though he broke a finger in the
previous fight Nick still fought the Quarter Final,
however lost 9 – 0 to the Super Heavyweight gold medallist
and eventual winner Andrea Scortegagna from the Fabricio Nascimento team,
this injury meant that nick had to withdraw from the UK
Lightweight team and the team was subsequently disqualified
from the team competition, As a replacement was refused by the organizers,
Which everyone felt was a bit harsh, As injuries in a
tough sport like this do happen and quite often,
