After a series of grand events in previous seasons, the Spyder Invitational BJJ Championship is back — this time with the most explosive line-up since Spyder BJJ’s inception. The show, slated to take place on November 23 in Seoul, South Korea, will feature two GPs with well-known BJJ champions as well as some talents from the new generation, with a prize pool of 250,000 dollars.
The under-76kg and under-100kg tourneys will certainly produce some breathtaking fights, and now Graciemag has obtained access to two of the names that were missing from the under-100kg GP.
Rodolfo Vieira, the GFTeam star currently employed by the UFC, will again don the gi for this event.
The other name is Nicholas Meregali, an Alliance star and disciple of Mário Reis who claimed BJJ Stars’s absolute belt this month.
Additionally, Gabriel Arges has also been confirmed, and will be vying for glory in the under-76kg GP.
We now have 15 out of 16 names confirmed for the Spyder Invitational BJJ Championship Final. Who do you think should round out the list? Let us know below.
