ONE Championship has reintroduced submission grappling to its competition circle at ONE X. Since then, the promotion has been rather busy with signing some of the best grapplers on the planet to compete under their ONE banner.
Mikey Musumeci, who has been training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu since he was just four years old and is a the multiple-time IBJJF world champion, is now the first in line among these athletes to get a shot for the title.
