Craig Jones has been vocal about his intentions to organize a tournament that will rival and overpower ADCC, having recently announced that the dates have been chosen and that it will be a total $2 million in prize money.
And now, it’s Nicky Ryan who has confirmed all of the above – as well as shared some additional details.
In a recent interview, Ryan shared more details:
Craig has booked the venue and everything like that.
And yeah, those screenshots he posted of the money in an account, those are very real.He has the money.
And even though the exact date of the event wasn’t revealed just yet, Ryan might have accidentally revealed them – by saying that the BDCC will collide with the ADCC dates (September 2024):
I just wish that it was, like, a different date.
This scumbag is making me choose [between the two events].
Jones has previously revealed a bunch of details about the event:
We’ll run two 16-men tournaments, $1 million prize money.
And to show up, we’ll give $10,001.ADCC pays $10,000 for the first prize.
So I thought it’d be funny if we just give them $10,001 just to show up.
The venue has been announced as well:
