This gory clip of Pat Shahgholi, a 16-year-old BJJ practitioner will leave you squeamish. However, unlike what his age might lead you to believe, it is Pat who is inciting the gore. He has a pattern of shooting heel hooks, resulting in the opponents leaving with a broken leg.

Many argue that it’s simply the nature of the sport that leads to such open brutality however with the foresight that it’s a disaster waiting to happen. Viewers are concerned that one day some superior practitioner could indict the same brutality on the 16- year old in the near future.

At the 20th Eddie Bravo Invitational, Shahgholi got to display his dominance for a wider audience at UFC fight pass and he made the most of it, winning in his signature style of brutality.
