Brazilian jiu-jitsu superstar Robert Drysdale will soon test the waters of mixed martial arts.

The Canadian-based Armageddon Fighting Championship today announced that Drysdale has signed a four-fight contract with the promotion and is expected to make his debut on July 17 at the company's third event, "AFC 3: Evolution."

An opponent has yet to be determined.

I hope he gets Koed, cocky and opinionated , but he will be fed cans for too long for us to know if he is actually good

He will sub club fighters in the first round for a while until he goes to a big show and gets absolutely destroyed and retires.
