On the morning of Wednesday, October 2, Jiu-Jitsu champion Rodrigo Cavaca told GRACIEMAG, exclusively, about the new path his career will be taking.
Twenty-ten Worlds champion and professor of Marcus Buchecha, Cavaca sent us this message, translated below:
“I write to announce my departure from Checkmat BJJ along with my 120 affiliates. I’d like to thank team owner Leonardo Vieira for all this time we spent together, where I learned a lot – I’ll always be thankful, – and to also thank all the friends I made over these five years on the team.
“I take pride in having represented this team with all I had, where I achieved the greatest results in my career; and, even under another name, everything I experienced there will always have a special place in my heart. I’ll always be rooting for all my friends and wishing them all the best. I hope everybody can look at this act objectively, for it was done in the interest of professional growth.
“I’m going after professional fulfillment, always grateful to all who have helped me. Soon we’ll be making further announcements. Thank you very much — Rodrigo Cavaca.”
Cavaca’s plans, starting now, include launching a new team with over 200 affiliates to start with and about 10 thousand students. Good luck in your new endeavor, Cavaca.
