Davin Maxwell is a lifelong grappler, beginning his training at the age of five under the tutelage of his father, Terry Maxwell. Together they run Sacramento Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Fight Academy - Team Maxwell. For Davin, grappling is a family affair. He received his black belt under Cassio Werneck in 2013 and cross trained in Judo and Wrestling as well. He is also one of my favorite people I have met doing Jiu Jitsu.
