Micah Brakefield takes on Lee Flores on the SUG 3 undercard

British Columbia’s own ‘Mitey’ Micah Brakefield will make the trek down to Portland, Oregon for a grappling match at Chael Sonnen’s Submission Underground 3 (SUG 3). This will be his first high profile match of its kind and it will be against SUG vet Lee Flores.

SUG 3 goes down on January 29 from the Roseland Theatre in Portland, Oregon.

Brakefield is a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and has competed on local soil a fare share. The  former MMA champion has competed at a collegiate level in wrestling, taken to the cage 13 times as a pro and competed in many BJJ super fights.

When the 28-year-old steps on the mat or inside the cage you can expect nothing less than fireworks. (See video below(

MAIN CARD
