Nick Rodriguez booked for Polaris Absolute Grand Prix following Luke Rockhold win

Jiu-jitsu phenom Nick Rodriguez will be one of the marquee names that will compete at the Polaris Absolute Grand Prix, which will see eight esteemed grapplers compete for a prize of $20,000 on April 4 at the International Convention Centre in Newport, Wales.

This is the first time that the U.K. grappling promotion has hosted a one-night tournament.

Also included on the list of competitors is ADCC champion Kaynan Duarte, the man who bested Rodriguez in the final of ADCC 2019. Duarte also took victory over Rodriguez when they contested a rematch at Fight 2 Win, two weeks after their ADCC gold medal match.
