ADCC 2019: the full roster for this weekend’s event

Marcus Buchecha and Orlando Sanchez are both fighting above 99kg.   GRACIEMAG

Everything is in place for the year’s most highly anticipated no-gi show. The 2019 ADCC Worlds, set to take place in Anaheim Calif., had multiple casualties in the weeks leading up to it, and this Friday, with the brackets already defined (though not yet published), we have the final list of athletes that will be competing.

In total, 96 athletes from many parts of the world will be vying for glory across five men’s weight divisions (66kg, 77kg, 88kg, 99kg and over 99kg) and two women’s divisions (under and over 60kg), as well as the men’s absolute, which is often the stage for epic battles.

Check out below the final list of competitors for ADCC 2019, and check out @GraciemagOficial for our live coverage!
