Jiu-Jitsu Times just named Gabriel Arges one of the best black belts of 2016. He received that black belt under Romulo Barral and Felipe PreguiƧa before he competed on behalf of Gracie Barra Academy. While Arges originally wanted to play soccer, the BJJ world is richer for his contributions to the martial arts. Since he’s only 23 years old, it’s easy to say that Agres should remain competitive at the highest level for years to come.
