Show Notes

This week we get back to our standard schedule we kick the show off with some news, the biggest news being that Gordon Ryan and Andre Galvao had beef on the Internet, and Caio Terra also decided to throw his hat in the ring. To top it all off a match originally slated to 50,000 dollars moved up to 300,000 dollars and Andre said 1 million or bust. After that we get into non-speculative news with Fight to Win announcing F2W Judo superfights were pumped about that.  Then talk about the rumor that IBJJF will be adding Heel Hooks into their rule set finally.  After that we get into the UAEJJF King of Mats event and all the amazing action of the event.  Then we recap the UAEJJF Grand Slam in Abu Dhabi that preceded the KOM event.  Next we move into Third Coast Grappling Championship and their unique points and submission rule set, Keenan Cornelius Vs Tex Johnson, and a host of other fantastic matches on the card.  Then we get back to our regularly schedule programming with Fight to Win 97 in Sacramento California.   Headlined by non other than Tex Johnson in a rare headlining two cards back to back in two different states kind of way.  We get into some title bout oddities, and talk about how great it is to be back to the normal schedule.  After that we move into the previews section of the show where we preview Fight to Win 98 in San Jose California.  Headlined by Jake Shields.  Then we get into our preview of the IBJJF 2019 European championship, which is shaping up to be a major event (of course it is).  Plus we talk about other events on the horizon for the end of January and into early February.
