Endres Barbosa Mendes, commonly known as Endres Barbosa is a jiu-jitsu black belt under Tarcísio Jardim, being also one of the main representatives of the Checkmat Academy in the sport's global circuit. Regarded as one of the top Brazilian prospects in the sport after conquering his first International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation (IBJJF) World Championship as a purple belt (2014), Endres Barbosa would later cement that claim, as a black belt, after several important tournament wins at an international level.
