Mo Jassim Steps Down as Head of ADCC
Here is the full statement from Mo’s Instagram:
“I would like to announce that I have decided to step down as head organizer of ADCC.I would like to thank Sheikh Tanhoon for the opportunity to be the only person to organize 3 ADCC Worlds. Thank you to Guy Neivens for allowing me to move up from wristband boy to head organizer. Thank you to Seth Daniels and Shawn Fowler, we gave every event we organized everything we had and I am very proud of the work we accomplished. Thank you to Flograppling for supporting me and the ADCC, they were great to deal with.
Thank you to all of the athletes who I have worked with the past 20 years. Also, thank you to all of the media who supported us and helped promote ADCC and the sport.
The sport has never been in a better place to break through mainstream, which has always been the end goal. My loyalty will always be to ADCC but any organizer or event that will grow the sport has my full support if needed. I look forward to just being a fan again.”
Thank You Mo
