AMERICANA, Brazil ― Two-time World Finals qualifier Edimundo Gomes used a 93.25- point effort this weekend to win the Iron Cowboy VI in Americana, Sao Paulo.

Brazil's version of the Iron Cowboy event is different from the U.S. event that took place this year in Arlington, Texas. Only the top 25 riders from last weekend's Americana event qualified to compete in this weekend's Iron Cowboy VI.

Built Ford Tough Series regulars that participated included: Fabiano Vieira, Eduardo Aparecido, Valdiron de Oliveira, Emilio Resende, Marco Eguchi, Guilherme Marchi and Silvano Alves.

The first three days of the event began like a regular event where riders compete for the highest aggregate score. On Sunday, the Top 12 in the event average were then put into a bracket-style competition.

Marchi won Round 3 with 89.88 points and led the event after competition on Saturday night to qualify for the Iron Cowboy bracket. Aparecido, Oliveira, Alves and Vieira also qualified.

Resende missed qualifying by only three-quarters of a point and finished in 13^th  place, while Eguchi finished close behind him in 14^th and missed qualifying by less than two points.

Vieira earned 86.63 points in the first round of bracket competition, but his opponent, Cláudio Crisostomo, eliminated him by earning 89.63 points. Crisostomo then used a 91.38 ride to knockout Marchi in the quarterfinals after the 2008 World Champion was bucked off.

Alves earned 88.88 points in the first round, but was bested by Gomes and his 90.25-point effort.

Gomes was knocked unconscious following his ride against Aparecido. The 2008 Brazil champion decided to continue competing and went on to the championship round.

Oliveira eliminated Roberto Rivelino in the first round after an 88.75-point effort. He moved into the quarterfinals where he faced two-time World Finals qualifier Paulo Lima. Lima earned 89 points, but Oliveira went on to earn 90.75 points and moved on to the semifinals to face Crisostomo.

Crisostomo eliminated Oliveira to face Gomes in the championship round. Crisostomo bucked off in 7.2 seconds while Gomes went on to earn an exceptional 93.25 points to win the title.
