Pacheco BJJ made Round 4 of Porrada Club their night, taking out the club-v-club challenge against MyBJJ with a performance built on pressure, composure and momentum.
From the opening exchange, the atmosphere felt different. Porrada Club is not a quiet tournament format. It is close, loud and team-driven, with every grip, scramble and referee call landing in front of a crowd that knows exactly what is at stake. With prize money on the line and two strong teams packed around the mat, Round 4 had the feeling of a proper showdown.
MyBJJ brought a serious line-up across the divisions. Their under-75kg athletes included Shankar Bhusal at white belt, Jackson Osfield at blue belt, Spiro Mavronas at purple belt, Ryan Nyberg at brown belt and William Smith at black belt. Over 75kg, Liam Garman, Jake Byrne, Andrew Roberts and Ben Gotlieb stepped in for the team.
Pacheco answered with depth in every belt and weight class. Under 75kg, they sent Kealan Schiezaro, Jett, Eduardo Collier, Felipe Okazima and Thiago Okazima. Over 75kg, Fernando Abreu, Lucas Strachan, Stefan Obradovic, Lucas Marcon and Gilson Dias gave Pacheco a full ladder of competitors from white belt through to black belt.
The result was a near-perfect run. Pacheco only lost one fight all night, with their single setback coming in the under-75kg black belt match. Everywhere else, they kept finding ways to win: early control, heavy passing sequences, sharp transitions and the kind of mat awareness that stops close matches from slipping away. It was not just one athlete carrying the team. It was a full squad performance.
That is what made the night exciting. Porrada Club rewards more than individual brilliance. The pressure of fighting for your academy changes the rhythm. Teammates were on their feet between matches, coaches were calling details through the noise, and the crowd lifted whenever a scramble opened up or a submission threat started to build. The photo gallery from the night captures that edge: athletes locked into exchanges, corners leaning into every moment, and the room reacting as the team score began to tilt Pacheco’s way.
It also showed why this format has a place in the ABJJA calendar. Porrada Club brings the structure of organised competition together with the raw team pride that makes academy rivalries fun. It gives newer belts a stage, gives senior belts real responsibility, and gives the crowd a reason to care about every single result.
Prize money added another layer. Every match mattered, and the athletes competed like they knew the win would travel back to the academy with them. For Pacheco BJJ, Round 4 was a statement. For MyBJJ, it was a tough night against a team that barely gave them room to breathe. For everyone watching, it was exactly what Porrada Club is meant to be: intense matches, loud support and a team result that people will talk about after the mats are packed away.
