“FloGrappling aims to grow Brazilian jiu-jitsu worldwide, and it’s great that we’re able to achieve this by working with 10th Planet and Onnit in our backyard,” FloSports SVP of Global Rights Acquisition and Subscription, Phil Wendler said. “Some of the top BJJ competitors in the world are participating in this event, and we’re excited to add it to our lineup of live streams, which includes the fourth season of Copa Podio and the U.S. National Pro Jiu-Jitsu Championship in January.”
The Onnit Invitational will feature Eddie Bravo Invitational (EBI) rules, which maximizes the chance of each fight ending in submission. Top athletes on the card include Richie “Boogeyman” Martinez, an Eddie Bravo black belt, well-known catch wrestler Travis Newaza, and child prodigy Cora Sek.
