If you follow the highest levels of no-gi grappling, you know how hard it is to keep up with all of the events going on. There are 10+ major promotions (ADCC, CJI, One Championship, WNO, Polaris, etc), no unified schedule, and great events happen all the time without you knowing until they are already over. Even worse, you might end up watching some low quality event on Youtube that wastes your precious time.

I’m Sam, a purple belt who’s been obsessed with watching no-gi grappling for the last 4+ years. I’ve learned which athletes and events deliver consistent entertainment. There is a ton of Jiu Jitsu noise, I can help you find the signal.

At the Jiu Jitsu Herald, our Event Calendar will show only the most entertaing events from the promotions worth watching. Our Event Previews will share the matches that matter, with context, history, and athletes to watch. Our Event Recaps will tell you whether the athletes and the promotions delivered on the hype and what to look for next time. Your time matters. See what’s worth watching on our Event Calendar page, and find out why it matters with the Event Preview!
