ONE Hokage Submission Grappling Championship star Fabrizio Andrei studies and rolls with the best, and his close relationship with fellow ONE fighter and reigning World Bantamweight Submission Grappling Champion “Baby Shark” Diego Reis is a testament to his dedication to the cause.
Andrei and Reis feed off each other’s energy, push each other on the mats like iron sharpens iron and learn each other’s tricks. It is this high-level dynamic between the two that has resulted in the best pound-for-pound submission grapplers in the world today.
In a recent interview with ONE ChampionshipAndrey talked about his friendship with Reis and more:

“The main difference between me and Diogo is that even though we’re both very good at jiu-jitsu, I’m more on the flow side. I just go forward and try to submit, and I don’t strategize too much. And sometimes I lose fights because I don’t have a strategy.
“Diego, on the other hand, is not so in the mood of the flow, but he always thinks the strategy ahead and makes the best decisions, always looking for flaws in the opponent’s side. And I learn a lot from him.”
Needless to say, Andrei is an absolute joy to watch on the mats, and fans won’t have to wait long to see him back in action in the ONE Championship ring.
