The submission grappling event created by Chael Sonnen, Submission Underground, returns for its 19th event and the final for 2020 with a barn burner of jiu-jitsu matches from Oregon. The line-up is peppered with UFC fighters including Donald Cerrone, Rafael dos Anjos, Felicia Spencer and Anthony “Rumble” Johnson amongst former fighters and Bellator standouts.

Submission Underground finally makes its 2021 debut today with Submission Underground 21. The card is headlined by the Submission Underground king and men’s champion Mason Fowler defending his belt against another SUG mainstay in “The Boogeyman” Richie Martinez. Both Martinez and Fowler won their most recent bouts by armbar in regulation at SUG’s last event, Submission Underground 20.
