At 40+, Sangram Singh roars into Europe

“I’ve trained harder than ever,” says Sangram, his voice steady with purpose. “This isn’t just a fight — it’s about proving that dreams don’t come with expiry dates.”

A two-time Commonwealth Heavyweight Wrestling Champion (2015-16), Sangram enters the 93-kg division, blending wrestling mastery with MMA precision. His camp in Haryana and Poland included 5-6 hours of daily sparring, high-altitude endurance drills and power sessions that pushed him beyond limits.

His rival Hakim Trabelsi (4-2 record) brings knockout power and European experience. But for Sangram, this bout is about something bigger — representation. “I fight for India. I fight to open doors for the next generation of Indian fighters.”

With over 5,000 fans expected in attendance and over 10 million global viewers, this fight could earn Sangram a title shot and cement India’s place in European combat sports.

Come November 2, 8 pm CET, when Sangram Singh walks into that cage, it won’t just be another match — it will be the moment when Indian grit meets European steel.
