The Absolutes

The absolutes are the fastest way for less experienced grapplers to get on the main card. The bracket will be fought under blackbelt Grappling Industries rules. If there is a minimum of 4 participants, the final will be held in a 10min EBI rules match to open the main card. This gives hungry and up and comers the opportunity to qualify for the main card and with a good performance might open the door for future superfights on the Mojitsu Events Series.
