2007 ADCC Superfight change: Arona is out
Submitted by: Kid Peligro / Sr Editor
Posted On 04/28/2007
ADCC Organizers have just received word from Ricardo Arona's camp that the former Champion is withdrawing form the Superfight. Arona's camp informed the committee that Ricardo had a relapse of the Dengue fever that he had contracted recently and will not be able to compete comes next weekend in Trenton, NJ. Arona is back in the hospital with a high fever. According to his camp Arona may have started training too hard and too early and his ammune system was not up 100% and then the relapse
The committee is looking at all available fighters to select the best for the Superfight against Roger Gracie. More on this as it develops!

Hopefully they put Roger in his bracket. This fight is obviously not meant to happen and there is only a week left (Lister, now Arona. Pulling Marcelo or Xande out of their bracket for this would not be cool...

i think pe de pano or monson would be the most plausable options.
Would pe de pano and roger fight, seeing as they are both gracie barra guys?
The person i would love to see thou would be Rigan.

I think Monson is the most feasible and logical choice at this moment. Roger and Pe de Pano are teammates and I'd hate to see Marcelinho out of the 66-77KG division. Xande hasn't done much in ADCC to warrant a superfight. Monson has 2 titles in 2 different weight classes and he's the champ for the 99KG+ division in 2005.
