ADCC released their official rankings (thanks to Graciemag.com for the full story). Brazilians maintain their dominance of the ranking, with 17 of the top 20. Only Kerr in third, Jeff Monson in 10th, and Dean Lister, who went from 21st to 17th, keep the South Americans from making a clean sweep.Check out the updated list below!Here is a post fight interview with Jeff Glover.
