Sangram Singh Set to Make MMA History in Amsterdam

“I’ve pushed myself harder than ever before,” Sangram asserts, his determination evident. “This fight transcends mere competition — it’s about demonstrating that aspirations have no expiration.”

A two-time Commonwealth Heavyweight Wrestling Champion (2015-16), Sangram will compete in the 93-kg category, combining his wrestling expertise with MMA skills. His training regimen in Haryana and Poland consisted of 5-6 hours of daily sparring, high-altitude endurance exercises, and strength training that tested his limits.

His opponent, Hakim Trabelsi, boasts a record of 4-2 and is known for his knockout ability and European experience. However, for Sangram, this match signifies a greater purpose — representing India. “I fight for my country. I aim to pave the way for future generations of Indian fighters.”

With an anticipated crowd of over 5,000 and more than 10 million viewers worldwide, this bout could lead to a title opportunity for Sangram and solidify India's presence in European combat sports.

As the clock strikes 8 pm CET on November 2, when Sangram Singh steps into the cage, it will mark a significant moment where Indian resilience confronts European strength.
