Biography

Benjamín Neme, a grappler from Santiago del Estero, was in his fifth year at Colegio Hermano Hermas de Bruijn in 2026 and represented Equipo Carlos Torres and the Heel Hook brand. That April, 385 Noticias reported his podium finish in the ADCC Buenos Aires Open’s advanced youth division under 55kg. Carlos Torres led the team. September coverage by Info del Estero outlined another learning opportunity: a planned camp in Villa Gesell with Najmeh Fight Club. An evaluation for a possible 2027 national-team place was also announced. In October, El Liberal reported AIGA gold in the adult intermediate division under 63kg and silver in youth intermediate competition in Buenos Aires. It described the event as mainly no-gi grappling, without the traditional gi. Neme contested a semifinal and final without a coach in his corner.
