What actually happened in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and submission grappling — championship results, rule changes, matchups, suspensions and announcements — gathered from the organisations involved, checked against each other, and written up with the context that makes them mean something.
Nothing is published to fill a schedule
Most days produce no page. A briefing appears when at least two developments are genuinely worth a reader's time, and a single story gets its own page only when it is large enough to deserve one.
Primary sources first
Facts come from the organisation the news is about — the federation, the promotion, the event — wherever one has published. Specialist reporting adds context. Every source is linked.
Context, not paraphrase
The value here is the selection, the background and the connection to how the sport actually works. Where a story turns on a technique, a ruleset or a division, we link to the guide that explains it.
A three-month IBJJF competition suspension was reported for Tayane Porfirio after a positive test connected to IBJJF Worlds 2026. ONE Fight Night 47 had a notable submission-grappling result, and ADCC published an updated competitor list for its 2026 Worlds.

The knowledge behind the news
News tells you what happened. These explain how the sport works, and they are written to stay true rather than to be current this month.
We would like to count visits to these pages with Google Analytics, so we can tell which of them people actually read. It stores a cookie in your browser and tells us nothing about you as a person. Say no and nothing is loaded at all — the page works the same either way. What we collect.
