Brod Pinggoy balances his rigorous BJJ training with the immense challenges of Second Year Medicine. “I shed blood, sweat, and tears training for this,” he adds. “I had to want winning the gold so bad, to a point where I knew I was in control of what was to come. I knew, plain and simple: the gold medal would be hanging on my neck by day’s end.”

Once again, congratulations for this hard-earned victory! All for the glory!
