Mikey Musumeci to Headline UFC BJJ 11, Faces Bryce Mitchell in New Weight Class

The reigning UFC submission grappling champion, Mikey Musumeci, has confirmed his next outing will be at a heavier weight class. He is slated to compete in the main event of UFC BJJ 11, a significant shift as he aims to test his skills against larger opponents.

His opponent for this upcoming September event will be Bryce Mitchell, a well-regarded contender within the UFC's mixed martial arts roster. This matchup pits a dominant submission artist against a powerful, well-rounded fighter known for his aggressive style.

The move up in weight for Musumeci signals an ambition to prove his grappling prowess against a wider range of physical challenges. Mitchell, on the other hand, will be looking to make a statement against one of the sport's most accomplished grapplers.
