One of the interesting reactions that came up with the news was the collective sigh of relief from grappling fans. ADCC previously had a partnership with Flo Grappling, which fans did not seem to be a fan of. Thus, most of the reactions on the news were quite untoward at Flo Grappling and its services. Additionally, stars like Gordon Ryan and Claudia Gadelha among many others also reacted to the news.

ADCC previously was partnered with Flo Grappling and the 2022 ADCC World Championships were also streamed on the platform. While many fans welcomed the shift to the UFC fight pass, some took this opportunity to thrash Flo grappling.
A few of the reactions were a clear display of why fans hated Flo grappling
“rest in pi*s fl*grappling”
“Never been more excited to cancel a subscription as I was when I saw this news”
“This is awesome news”
One individual even went as far as to cancel his subscription to Flo grappling.
“Man I cancelled my Flo with the biggest smile on my face”
As expected, there were quite a few comments slandering Flo Grappling and its service
“Praise jeebus! all us grappling nerds can breath a sigh of relief and put flo out to pasture”
“Flow Grappling was f****g garbage, thank god ADCC is on fightpass.”
“Flograppling sucks a*s. Not to mention everything is paywalled there which even by modern standards is too much.”
But there were also fans who praised the news of the partnership.
“As much as people give UFC shit here. They’re much better than flograppling. Good move by ADCC.”
“Man 95$ for a year of fight pass is surprisingly reasonably priced for the ufc. They have tons of stuff. (Not a ufc intern btw)”
On an Instagram post by UFC fight pass, grappling GOAT Gordon Ryan and retired UFC fighter Claudia Gadelha also left their reactions
“Badass!!!” – Claudia Gadelha
“We all did!” – Gordon Ryan
