Diego Sanchez in ADCC?

I read that Diego Sanchez in a recent radio interview said he was going to compete in this years Abu Dhabi in San Diego.

Can anyone confirm this?

I have seen Diego Grapple in many tournaments including Grapplers Quest and think he would do very well.

Migueli,

Not unless he wins the TUF on April 9th.

Why would having a contract keep someone from competing in Abu Dhabi? I have seen a number a UFC fighter Matt Lindland, Matt Hughes, Tito and ect compete in Abu Dhabi.
