The streaming service announced on Saturday that it has signed a
multi-year agreement with ADCC Submission Fighting World Federation
to air the organization’s events. As a result, UFC Fight Pass will
broadcast more than 40 ADCC events through 2024 beginning with the
ADCC Opens in Mexico this March. The ADCC Championship in Las Vegas
will stream on Fight Pass in September.
“Apart from UFC events, grappling is among the most popular content
on UFC Fight Pass,” said vice president and general manager of UFC
Fight Pass Crowley Sullivan in a release. “We’re excited to add
ADCC, which is arguably the most prestigious submission grappling
competition in the world, to UFC Fight Pass.”
ADCC was founded in 1998 and consistently features many of the
world’s best grapplers in a tournament-style competition every two
years. Notable MMA fighters who have won ADCC championships include
the likes of Demian Maia,
Ronaldo
Souza, Fabricio
Werdum, Ricardo
Arona, Mark Kerr and
Ricco
Rodriguez, to name a few.
“ADCC is thrilled to work with UFC Fight Pass and showcase the
brilliance of grappling to fans in the United States and around the
world,” said ADCC head organizer Mo Jassim. “This deal
includes our premier event ADCC 2024 in September 2024 in Las Vegas
– an event UFC Fight Pass subscribers will not want to miss.”
