JITS GAINED

Perfect weekend at Newbreed Florida. Two submissions and two points wins for the gold medal.

The weekend belongs to Charlotte "Tank" Kleintank. Eight matches at NAGA San Diego, eight submissions, zero points wins. That is not a typo. She does not see a single scorecard. The grey belt from ATOS Temecula walks into the field rated at 2,960 Jits and walks out with gold and the cleanest record of the weekend.

Meanwhile at NAGA Philadelphia, Rohan Kurani of Tiger Kang MMA turns a 3-1 record into the weekend's largest Jits gain. His submission win over Aydn Josiah Young — a 6,270-Jits orange belt from Essential Jiu-Jitsu — is the second-biggest upset of the day. Context matters more than record, and that single result carries Kurani to +2,590 Jits.

Grappling Industries Las Vegas produces the weekend's deepest bracket runs. Kupaia Peters and Levi Michael Conzachi, both from Carlson Gracie Henderson, each go 10-0 — five wins in Gi, five in No Gi, same tournament, same day. That is twenty consecutive wins from one academy in one building.

Arabella Grace Daen Brackett of Atos LV rolls through four opponents in the 8-9 year old No Gi intermediate division at the same event, carrying a 7,275-Jits rating. At Grappling Industries Cincinnati, Zachary Evans of S and G BJJ wins five straight in the adult white belt Gi division, and Maximus Timothy Mccall of Relson Gracie sweeps the grey belt bracket with four wins.

LOOKING AHEAD

Looking Ahead

The circuit continues next Saturday with events spread across the country. Kleintank's 8-0 submission streak sets the bar. The question for the rest of the field is whether anyone can match that finish rate — or whether it stands alone as the cleanest card of the early season.
