Dominyka Obelenyte is celebrating her 20th birthday this Thursday, July 30.
By all means a prodigy in Jiu-Jitsu, in 2015 she became the youngest competitor to achieve the gold medal at the black belt open class division of the Worlds.
After the double gold campaign in Long Beach last June, she was compared to Roger Gracie for her powerful top game with strong passes and accurate finishes.
“I accept that comparison because it’s freaking awesome. Who doesn’t want to be compared to Roger Gracie. We are both very lanky and use our length to our advantage,” said Dominyka about the comparison in an exclusive interview on GRACIEMAG #220.
A world champion in all belts, Dominyka has a very bright future ahead indeed.
Let’s celebrate her birthday watching her greatest moment so far, the 2015 Worlds black belt open class final against Monique Elias.
