Carlos "CADU" Francis won a bronze medal in the Pesado division yesterday. In a tough division Cadu defeated Filippi Matos (Barbosa JJ) in the first round, then won against well known veteren Leo Dalla (Big Brothers – Jorge Pereria Black Belt) in the second round. Unfortunately he was one of several high profile victims of Xandao Riberio (Absoluto and Pesado Champion) in the semi finals.
Cadu arrives in Perth this Friday and will be conducting classes in three locations (Armadale, Northbridge and Joondalup) as of Monday August 7th 2006. He will be holding a seminar at Paul Marstons Sozokan Academy on Saturday 12th at 1830 Albany Hwy Maddington. The seminar is $60.00 per person and starts at 1pm.
