Hélio Gracie
Hélio Gracie accepted the challenge to have his students face Fadda’s and the matches took place at the Gracie Academy. Fadda’s team won, making better use of their footlock knowledge, something the Gracies lacked and frowned upon ever since, calling it “suburban technique” (Técnica de Suburbano). The highlight of the competition was when Fadda’s pupil José Guimarães choked Gracie’s student “Leonidas” unconscious.
