*'''Overturn''' Apart from the nominator, both the other two editors who commented indicated that the topic was "well-known" but that they couldn't find much coverage. This should have constituted reasonable doubt per [[WP:DGFA]] because editors commonly have trouble finding sources; it doesn't seem to be easy. In this case, the search problem is that the title of the event is long and includes an abbreviation. When the search constraints are relaxed so that partial hits are included, another good source immediately appears — ''[http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=lzdXP08P1pkC&pg=PT51 The MMA Encyclopedia]'' — which confirms that this is "''the most prestigious competition in the world of no-gi submission grappling''".

*'''Delete''' The article was basically an advertisement. The coverage used basically blogs or passing mention. There was no citations and simply is a tournament that some people travel to go to because they have prize money. It is as relavent as the New York Open. [http://www.newyorkopenjudo.com/news.php] It simply isn't notable. [[User:CrazyAces489|CrazyAces489]] ([[User talk:CrazyAces489|talk]]) 08:09, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

::The ADCC tournament is widely regarded as one of the top two most prestigious events in submission grappling, the other being the [[World Jiu-Jitsu Championship|Mundials/World Jiu-Jitsu Championship.]] The analogous event in judo would be the Olympics, the [[All-Japan Judo Championships|All-Japan]], or the [[World Judo Championships]]. -[[User:JHFTC|Toptomcat]] ([[User talk:JHFTC|talk]]) 02:07, 15 October 2014 (UTC)

*'''Comment'''  Two more Sources for notability, books written by elite grapplers: [[Marcelo Garcia]] - [http://books.google.co.il/books?id=xdahTKqjYDEC&pg=PA17&dq=adcc+abu+dhabi&hl=en&sa=X&ei=Qus7VKCCD8SBywPsuYKwDA&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=adcc%20abu%20dhabi&f=false The X-Guard: Gi & No Gi Jiu-Jitsu] and [[Royler Gracie]] - [http://books.google.co.il/books?id=zifrv0mqvCoC&q=adcc+abu+dhabi&dq=adcc+abu+dhabi&hl=en&sa=X&ei=qOs7VMiwLomGywOln4IY&redir_esc=y Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Submission Grappling Techniques]. Both say it is the most prestigious no GI competition in the world. [[User:Bigbaby23|Bigbaby23]] ([[User talk:Bigbaby23|talk]]) 15:21, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
