South American Championship-winning heavyweight Tarcísio Jardim is yet another fighter adding broth to the melting pot at the 2012 Jiu-Jitsu World Championship, coming up the end of this month in Irvine, California. The CheckMat rep is one of Antonio Carlos “Cara de Sapato’s” training partners, and he’s currently in Santos, where he’s going through his preparations for the biggest IBJJF tournament of the year alongside Rodrigo Cavaca. Direct from the port city in São Paulo State, Tarcísio demonstrates two plenty-effective attacks against the berimbolo.
