Marcio Feitosa vs Crezio Souza Mundials Jiu Jitsu 2002 Marcio Feitosa, one of the biggest names in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, is a black belt under Carlos Gracie Junior, being also his master’s right-hand man in relation to Gracie Barra‘s affairs. A true ambassador of the sport, Marcio Feitosa conquered the World Jiu-Jitsu Championship on multiple occasions as well as the ADCC (Abu Dhabi Combat Club), the world’s most prestigious Submission Wrestling event. When Gracie Barra moved its headquarters to the United States, Marcio Feitosa did the same, being made the international team’s main coach and frontman. A 7th-degree jiu-jitsu coral belt and one of the main figures in the legendary Carlson Gracie team of the 1980/90s, Crezio de Souza was considered by many as the most technical fighter in the camp, who remained undefeated for 10 years. Crezio de Souza was also one of the pioneers in MMA (Vale Tudo in those days), having fought iconic fighters such as Dan Henderson and Johil de Oliveira. In 2002, partially blind due to the many wars on the rings & mats, Crezio de Souza became the first (and only) man over 40 to achieve a medal in the Brazilian National Jiu-Jitsu Championship (adult division).
