Blake is an extremely talented grappler and a key part of the Mat Shark coaching team. Having started Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at a young age, he has already built an impressive competition record — multiple-time State Champion in both WA and NSW, multiple-time Pan Pacific Champion, and a Battleground Super Fight winner.
