Update (October 2026): ADCC 2026 is over. It ran as scheduled on September 12-13 at TAURON Arena Krakow, and the replays are on FloGrappling. Felipe Pena won the absolute for a record second time, and Yuri Simoes beat Kaynan Duarte in the superfight. Every result is in our ADCC 2026 results: every champion from Krakow.

The Biggest Grappling Event of 2026, On Demand

It only happens once every two years, and in 2026 the ADCC World Championship came to Krakow, Poland. It was the first ADCC ever held in Poland, though not the first in Europe, which had hosted in Barcelona (2009), Nottingham (2011) and Espoo (2017). If you missed it live, here's where to watch the replays, when it actually aired, and who won.

For the full event breakdown -- venue, format and prize money -- see our ADCC 2026 Krakow championship guide. For every bracket result, see the ADCC 2026 results.

Runners-up, how each final ended and the weekend's storylines, including the Day 1 brawl, are in our full ADCC 2026 results.

Where to Watch the Replays

How to watch: FloGrappling holds the ADCC broadcast rights, and its 2026 ADCC World Championships event page is now marked concluded, with replays available. A FloGrappling subscription is required. The ADCC Amateur World Championship from September 11 is on FloGrappling too.

  • FloGrappling -- full replays of the World Championship (September 12-13) and the Amateur Worlds (September 11), plus highlight reels such as its compilation of 25 submissions from Day 1.
  • ADCC's official site -- news and official competitor lists.
  • Avoid "free stream" re-uploads. They're unreliable, often illegal, and a malware risk. Stick to the official broadcaster.

Where to Start With the Replays

  • Women's -65 kg final -- Ana Carolina Vieira vs. Sarah Galvao went into a second overtime before Vieira's rear-naked choke at 32:29.
  • Men's -99 kg final -- Luke Griffith trailed defending champion Kaynan Duarte for most of the match, then sprawled, took the back and choked him at 14:47.
  • Victor Hugo's +99 kg run -- four matches, four submissions, all from the bottom, ending with a shoulder lock on Josh Saunders.
  • Pawel Jaworski's -88 kg run -- inside heel hooks on the top seed Felipe Costa and on Gabriel Brod, in front of a home crowd.
  • The absolute final -- Felipe Pena's rear-naked choke on Roosevelt Sousa at 10:03, for a record second absolute title.

Watch Like an Expert

ADCC's ruleset is unlike anything else in grappling. The first half of each match has no points, pulling guard costs a point in the scoring half, in overtime and throughout finals, and matches can end in a referee decision. Several did in Krakow.
