Mikey’s Announcement
Mikey took to social media this weekend to announce his move back to the US and his departure from ONE. Read his full statement below:
“END OF A CHAPTER OF MY LIFE – today I would like to announce I will no longer be living in Asia or competing under One Championship. Almost 3 years ago I met Chatri in Singapore in a meeting that was supposed to be 10 minutes and then turned into 4 hours of us talking 🤣😭. I had never lived outside my family in the US and then I called my mom and told her I’m changing continents and moving to Asia ! 🤣 These past three years I have had some of the best memories and lessons of my life! I met so many incredible people in Singapore @evolvemma and in Thailand @arete_bjj and these people i will consider to be friends and family for life. With the opportunity chatri gave me with one championship, I was the first submission grappling world champion the organization ever had, and I had the platform and opportunity to help grow our sport of jiu jitsu to so many more people! I will forever be full of gratitude to him, we traveled to 6 different countries together always training talking about life so many amazing memories 😭. This part of my life I am ready to now stay permanently home in the US where my family is, and start a new chapter of my competition career and life! Asia will always be my second home. Thank you everyone that supports me I am beyond grateful ❤️😭😊. God bless !”- Mikey Musumeci.
Where Will Mikey Compete Next?
