An explosive rematch is set to take place in the Main Card of the Abu Dhabi Extreme Championship’s (ADXC) second edition, set to take place on January 19th, in Abu Dhabi.
Ali Monfaradi and Talison Costa will be heavily motivated to conquer victory as they face each other in a Jiu-Jitsu bout.
With three rounds of three minutes each, the match comes as a rematch between the Bahraini Ali and Brazil’s Talison, with their last meeting happening in the ADWPJJC Master 1 division final.
Ali emerged as the winner back then, taking the gold in the 77kg division, but Talison is ready to show the world that he has what it takes to beat his rival in the ADXC cage, bringing high-octane action to the organization’s ruleset.

With a strong half-guard game and fast transitions to take the back, Ali has all the right toolset to rise as the winner in the ADXC cage.
