About

Bio

Gustavo Falciroli is the reigning Cage Fighting Championship Bantamweight Champion, one of the best mixed martial arts fighters in Australia and a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt third degree.

Brazilian born Australian, Gustavo started his training in 1996 with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and was awarded his black belt by Roberto Tozi and Roberto Godoi in December 2003.
After placing third at the BJJ World Championships, winning the Brazilian Cup and taking home a slew of state titles in Brazil — all as a black belt — in 2007 he made the move to Australia and the transition into MMA.

Since entering the world of mixed martial arts, Gustavo has replicated the success he found in BJJ and is renowned for his ability to apply his grappling and submissions in MMA.
Gustavo captured the Cage Fighting Championship bantamweight title in 2010, successfully defended it and has since fought in Japan, Australia and Indonesia.
