WAMMA Heavyweight Champion Fedor Emelianenko and DREAM Middleweight Grand Prix winner Gegard Mousasi reportedly will compete at the famed Abu Dhabi Combat Club championships in 2009.
While Fedor may have failed to capture gold at the Sambo World Championships, the ADCC presents a golden opportunity to add to his non-MMA competition trophy case.
Fans and Critics may think Mousasi could be at a disadvantage due to his strong Kickboxing base. However, eight of his twenty four wins come via submission and he submitted Denis Kang during the DREAM Grand Prix.
Look for the ADCC to return to action in New York during September of next year.
