Craig Jones has just made waves in the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu community…
By revealing that he has placed a $100,000 bet on himself to submit Gabi Garcia – with a Leg Lock in their upcoming match at the Craig Jones Invitational (CJI).
The match between Jones and Garcia has been highly anticipated for years, with negotiations reportedly starting over three years ago.
The intergender aspect, combined with Garcia’s size advantage and her storied career, has generated considerable interest.
Despite these challenges, Jones is betting big on his ability to finish Garcia – who also has a reputation for being incredibly difficult to submit.
Jones is unequivocal in his confidence however, as shared in a recent social media post:
In case you thought I was going to take it easy on her…
100k of my own money on the line.

While the Jones-Garcia match is a headline-grabber, the Craig Jones Invitational also features an exciting superfight between Ffion Davies and Mackenzie Dern, as well as elite competitors in both the under and over 80kg divisions.
The event promises to be a showcase of top-tier grappling talent, with fans eagerly awaiting the outcome of these phenomenal matchups.
