[WATCH] Mikey Musumeci Loses His Cool Against Gabriel Sousa: “Submitted Him Easy As F*ck”

[WATCH] Mikey Musumeci Loses His Cool Against Gabriel Sousa: “Submitted Him Easy As F*ck”

ONE flyweight submission grappling world champion Mikey Musumeci created quite a stir in the BJJ world…
With an unexpectedly swearing-filled victory speech, after defeating Gabriel Sousa at ONE 167.

Namely, Musumeci was on a mission of redemption against Sousa, who had previously submitted him at Who’s Number One in 2021.
So, this rematch appears to have been deeply personal for Musumeci, who did not hold back during the post-fight speech.

Here’s what he had to say:

I competed with Gabriel like three or four years ago, and I lost this match, right?
So this match was to show everyone that when you have an obstacle, you overcome it.

My opponent talked a lot of sh*t about me for about four years.
I respect him so much, but for four years, he commented on every freaking post I did.

Then he did something very personal to me.
And when he did this personal involving family, that’s when I got angry.

It was at that point that Mikey fired off completely:

But everyone talking sh*t: “Oh, you couldn’t beat him, there is no way… He’s a division heavier than you…”

Just submitted him easy as f*ck!

Mikey’s rant created quite a stir in the BJJ community, with some defending his actions and some criticizing him for them.

What do you think of it?
