Overview

At nineteen years old, Alberto Crane made an all-or-nothing decision that would change the course of his life: He left behind everything he knew and moved to Brazil to pursue the art of Jiu-Jitsu. What followed was a journey of grit, humility, and relentless heart that led him to become the first American to earn a black belt from the legendary Gracie Barra academy. This teachable biography-five years in the making-traces Alberto's evolution from a wide-eyed beginner to a sixth-degree black belt, world champion, UFC fighter, coach, and mentor. Through injuries, setbacks, and near-impossible odds, Alberto's story becomes a testament to perseverance, vulnerability, and the quiet power of discipline. More than just a fighter's tale, this is a deeply human story about what it means to dedicate one's life to something greater-and to keep showing up, no matter what stands in the way.

Author Information

Alberto Crane is the author of All In: Lessons On and Off the Mat, a book drawn from his life in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, mixed martial arts, coaching, and fatherhood. The story is told through Alberto’s firsthand experiences, reflections, and hard-earned lessons—on the mat and in life. All In was created in close collaboration with Mexhele Deuxlemarr, who worked alongside Alberto over several years to help document and shape his story. Through deep listening, extensive conversations, and careful observation, Mexhele helped translate Alberto’s voice, values, and lived experience into narrative form. What began as a single blog post in November 2017 evolved into a long-form collaboration built on trust, vulnerability, and a shared belief in the power of honest storytelling. Together, they shaped a book rooted in discipline, resilience, and the pursuit of living fully committed—all in.
