When your nickname is “Jitsu” you better have some damn good jiu-jitsu skills. Well, there is no fronting on Joe “Jitsu” Christopher’s BJJ skills. Hell, dude has a brown belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu which means he can choke me out with his pinky. Still, in light of Christopher’s mad talents he was beaten pretty convincingly by Joey Gorczynski in the main event of Steele Cage 3 last month. Styles make fights, and Gorczynski’s smothering wrestling would give most fighters fits.
With the bitter taste of defeat still fresh in his mouth; Christopher will look to get a win back in his record when he takes on Houston’s Andrew Chappelle on the local undercard portion of Bellator 27 taking place tonight at the Majestic Theater in San Antonio. With an impressive win tonight Christopher exorcises the demons from his last fight and can move forward with a career that seems primed for takeoff.
Also reppin’ the DFW on Bellator 27 is heavyweight Dale Mitchell of Dallas who will face Richard Odoms
