Submission Underground 7 features tournament and tag-team grappling

Chael Sonnen set out to change the way we view competitive grappling, and Submission Underground 7 is a step in that direction. The event scheduled for Sunday, April 15 in Portland, Oregon comes with a number of super fights and an eight-man brown belt tournament, but it’s the inclusion of tag-team grappling that has majority of the industry public intrigued.

Be forewarned, this is nothing like what occurs in the WWE. We will not see any superplexes, doomsday devices or anything of the like. Instead, this is a strategic play to bring together grapplers in competition in an exciting fashion.
