El ADCC (Abu Dhabi Combat Club) Submission Wrestling World Championship es una competición que incluye a los atletas profesionales que han tenido éxito en los niveles más altos de jiu-jitsu brasileño, lucha, judo, sambo, shoot wrestling y artes marciales mixtas. Las reglas no permiten golpes de manos ni piernas, pues el evento promueve el grappling y las sumisiones. El evento originalmente se llevó a cabo en Abu Dhabi, pero eventualmente se trasladó a otras sedes; Brasil, China, Finlandia, España, Reino Unido y los Estados Unidos.
Historia El concurso fue creado por el jeque Tahnoon Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, hijo del expresidente de los Emiratos Árabes Unidos Jeque Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, junto con su profesor de jiu-jitsu brasileño, Nelson Monteiro.
Miles de torneos de grappling alrededor del mundo usan los elementos de formato y la estructura de reglas de la ADCC. Hasta la fecha, la gran mayoría de los campeones ADCC han tenido la experiencia de estudiar el arte del jiu-jitsu brasileño, cuyas normas son las más parecidas. Sin embargo, ha habido excepciones notables, tales como el japonés Sanae Kikuta, el sudafricano Mark Robinson (quien fue campeón en judo, lucha greco-romana, lucha libre olímpica, sumo, y en levantamiento de pesas), y el estadounidense Mark Kerr.
En 2023, ADCC firmó un contrato de transmisión exclusiva y de múltiples años con UFC Fight Pass, dejando su previa transmisión con FloSports.
