Craig Jones Invitational Results and Live Stream
Famed jiu jitsu practitioner Craig Jones will hold the two-day Craig Jones Invitational from the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada this weekend.
Craig Jones from B Team Jiu Jitsu is a two-time ADCC silver medalist. Disappointed with athlete pay at ADCC, he decided to host a tournament in which all invited athletes receive a higher minimum payout ($10,001) than the male winner of ADCC ($10,000).
The winner in each weight division will receive $1 million prize money.
The first day of the Craig Jones Invitational on Aug. 16 will start at 6 p.m. ET, and the second day will begin at 8 p.m. ET.
