Sterling gets a new opponent at the Polaris 25 grappling tournament

Dmitriy Kel Sept. 20, 2023, 2:07 a.m.

There have been changes to the main event of the Polaris 25 grappling tournament, which is scheduled for September 30 in Wales, but the former UFC bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling will still participate.

He was originally scheduled to face fellow UFC veteran Nathaniel Wood, but had to pull out due to the fight in October. He was replaced at the last minute by Mike Grundy.

Grundy is also a popular MMA fighter from the UK and a UFC veteran, although he actually has a significantly higher level of grappling than Wood. However, Mike cannot boast of success in the leading promotion - he had only four fights, three of which he lost.
