By: Valon Xoxa February 11, 2014
There is no stopping with Majlinda. The current world champion has just proved that once again, it will take more than just hard work to defeat someone of her ranking.
Majlinda Kelmendi was quick to break her opponent, with a stellar “ippon”, thus polishing the shine on her Gold Medal within the 52kg category within the Paris Grand Slam. The Kosovan warrior finished her duel in 1 min and 30 seconds, thus disabling her opponent Jaan Sundberg of any chance or wishful thinking towards grabbing the title away. Following this success, Majlinda has reinforced her status in the first place within World Judo Ranking.
To get the adrenaline going, the following is a video of her final battle at the Paris Grand Slam.
