IGOR VOVCHANCHYN MMA UKRAINE

war igor. i still believe.

 

[Wrestler189]

war igor. i still believe.

i cant wait to see what he has to offer now

 

[BuryConn]

Cool. Igor's fighting

 

[heavy_hander]

im stoked that ProElite is showing it! cant wait.

but will this interfere with Gonzaga's title shot?

 

[Fork]

i cant wait to see what he has to offer now

seriously, i'm considering going more or less just to see him. i mean i would enjoy adcc anyway, but i wouldn't even think about going if igor wasn't there.

 

[phizban]

no werdum? that sucks.

i didn't know Yushin was gonna be in there though, that should be really interesting. His grappling is very impressive in MMA

also, is there any word on Roger? i know lister got injured so does he have another "superfight" opponent or is he gonna just compete in a regular tourny?

 

[Fork]

im stoked that ProElite is showing it! cant wait.

really? is proelite showing like the whole thing?

 

[BuryConn]

Wonder why Arona's not in there. He's a beast at grappling

 

[phizban]

Wonder why Arona's not in there. He's a beast at grappling

i had heard he was gonna be! i dunno, is this list totally final?

 

[Wrestler189]

http://www.mmaweekly.com/absolutenm/templates/dailynews.asp?articleid=3859&zoneid=13


if i remember correctly some are free. if u want every match you have to pay something like $20

 

[Shatefak]

sucks that arona is out though

 

[Fork]

i had heard he was gonna be! i dunno, is this list totally final?

yeah, i've seen his name on a list as well. weird.

 

[Wrestler189]

i had heard he was gonna be! i dunno, is this list totally final?

arona and roger are supposed to be there. my mistake. ill update it

nice, thanks for the info.

 

[Hellscream]

Forgive the grappling noob question, I'm not overly familiar with ADCC, is it going to be broadcast on television or PPV?

 

[Shatefak]

i had heard he was gonna be! i dunno, is this list totally final?

he's out because of pneumonia.

 

[Fork]

arona and roger are supposed to be there. my mistake. ill update it

oh, just saw on that link you posted that arona is fighting roger now that lister dropped out. interesting, should be good.

 

[Wrestler189]

Forgive the grappling noob question, I'm not overly familiar with ADCC, is it going to be broadcast on television or PPV?

no. proelite is airing parts or whole of it...a few posts up go to the mmaweekly link. it will explain

 

[Agent Zero]

He moved out of the tournament and into the superfight against Roger Gracie, replacing the injured Dean Lister.
