Supermatch added to Jiu-Jitsu Expo! Glover vs. Caio

The last supermatch on the 1st Jiu-Jitsu Expo program was announced this Wednesday. It will be a No-Gi bout between submission wizards Caio Terra and Jeff Glover, two of the most technical slight-framed fighters in the sport.

The two superstars are “old acquaintances.” Late in the year 2011, they had an exchange over Facebook where the discussion didn’t involve just Jiu-Jitsu techniques and ideology. Terra posted a comment about having won the 2011 No-Gi Worlds despite suffering from injuries, and Jeff showed up on his wall to remind him that he’s not the only one who gets hurt, that he should stop whining, and that he sounded like a parrot.

Caio responded right away, taunting Glover about rarely competing at and winning Jiu-Jitsu tournaments. Can this match-up get any spicier than that?

Now if you’re under the impression the attractions are limited to supermatches and seminars, there’s still time for more announcements. The promoters have more major, so far unannounced, events they’ll be adding to the menu for the May 12 Jiu-Jitsu fair, so stay tuned to GRACIEMAG.com.

One of the biggest components of the gentle-art fair is the IBJJF’s Spring Open, a tournament that will take place within the Expo, so there’s a chance you may be the big star of the day.

To get in the mix and vie for accolades from the cream of the Jiu-Jitsu crop, waste no time and

war caio

This Via Caios Facebook Page: "Next weekend I was scheduled to do a seminar at the World Jiu Jitsu expo in Los Angeles but it got cancelled because I was told Jeff Glover wanted a super fight with me. So I was offered the fight and was asked would I prefer gi or no gi.

With the expo being a couple weeks away from the mundials I choose the gi, it makes no sense to alter my gi training and affect my training partners (if I could find any to do no-gi) who are preparing for worlds. Beating one person isn't as important as training hard and representing my style of jiu jitsu at the worlds.

No disrespect, Jeff, but since you wanted this fight put the gi on and I will give you a no gi match some time after worlds.

Also if you have registered yet, we still have spots available for our camp. Even if you are not competing at the mundials this camp will be an amazing experience!"

I'm not so sure if it will happen. Or if it will be gi or no-gi! According to Caio facebook post!

War Glover!

Def. cheering for Glover, but not too sure he can take it if it's in the gi. . .

Terra, he doesnt juice! :)

We spoke to Caio about a possible superfight with Eddie and another with Caio. Check out his interview on openmatradio.com.

If it's gi I got Caio. If it's no-gi I got Jeff.
