Aiming to have great matches and also reveal the new names of the Jiu-Jitsu and Grappling scene, the Abu Dhabi Extreme Championship (ADXC) in its second edition invited two Emirati gems to show their technique to the world.
Scheduled for January 19th, at the Mubadala Arena, in Abu Dhabi, the ADXC 2 will feature the Al Suwaidi brothers, Omar and Mohammed, both recently promoted to black belt and ready to fly even higher in our sport!
Having graduated to the elite of Jiu-Jitsu on the same day and by the hands of the UAEJJF chairman H.E. Abdulmonen Al Hashmi, Omar and Mohammed will star in the ADXC 2 preliminary card, each facing an equally young and fierce opponent in the tournament.
With their names and budding careers on the line, it’s up to the Al Suwaidi brothers to use their quick and aggressive game to take the victory in the challenging ADXC cage.
In a Jiu-Jitsu bout, Omar Al Suwaidi will face Scotland’s Shay Montague, a well-known fighter in both Jiu-Jitsu and grappling who uses a lot of different tricks to corner his opponents and get the submission.
