Mikey Musumeci Details Unique Training Methods Ahead of UFC BJJ Featherweight Bout

UFC BJJ Bantamweight champion Mikey Musumeci is preparing for a shift to the featherweight division, where he is scheduled to face Bryce Mitchell. Known for his elite leg lock expertise, Musumeci recently shared details regarding his unconventional training regimen in preparation for the matchup.

In a recent interview with MMA Mania, the champion revealed that his training camp has included the use of a dog shock collar. Musumeci noted that the unorthodox method was implemented specifically to sharpen his focus and defensive reactions when dealing with potential grappling exchanges against Mitchell, who is also known for his proficiency on the ground.

Musumeci, often referred to by his moniker 'Darth Rigatoni,' has built his reputation on his ability to solve complex grappling puzzles and secure submissions. As he moves up in weight, the transition presents a new test for his technical approach. While he is celebrated for his own leg lock capabilities, he is currently adjusting his game plan to navigate the specific challenges posed by his upcoming opponent in the featherweight bracket.
