Toronto BJJ's head Jiu Jitsu instructor and CCF (Colosseo Championship Fighting) Lightweight Champion is preparing for his debut at 'W-1 Bad Blood' (Warrior 1) in Montreal on March 20th after knocking out Josh Kyrejto in 37 seconds at CCF 5 in Edmonton, Alberta.

Jorge Brito vs. Josh Kyrejto
Brito starts out throwing a mixed bag of kicks with a leg kick, a body kick and then a head kick followed by a well placed right that drops Kyrejto to the mat where he jumps on top and lands punches and hammerfists that knock Kyrejto out cold ending the fight in impressive fashion.

It's been 4 CCF fights for Britto (10-6-1) with 3 wins and 1 loss. This jump for Britto to Canada's most reputed MMA Promotion will be a great opportunity to highlight the Brazilian's agressive mix of Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai striking.

Currently training with Andre Dida's Brother Mauricio Veio (Evolucao Thai) and fresh from an extended camp in Rio De Janeiro at Gracie Tijuca, The Royler Gracie Black Belt will face Johnathan Mix @ 170lbs at 'W1- Bad Blood' and will feature on a fight card alongside Carlos Newton, Dennis Kang and Shonie Carter.

W-1 appear to be a more media savvy promotion than CCF who in turn don't appear to have the greatest reputation in Edmonton (judging by back and forth commenting on online forums and received flack for introducing 'Pride' Rules over Unified MMA rules at their last event) I've been vocal about the fact that CCF have no website, facebook page or any presence on line. Warrior 1 have a better presence on line but it is still unclear whether this event will be live on line to watch. But with 'The Score' as partners we very well might get some TV coverage.
