Numerous specialists in the ground game from the eastern coast of the United States have gone on to achieve seismic waves of such magnitude that promotions have no choice but to take notice of them on an even larger scale and bigger stages. In today’s episode of Across The Pond, you will meet a raider of intensifying gales ready to send heavyweights toppling like trees in PFL MMA. A professional mixed martial artist since May 2021 and representing The Institute and Bayshore Jiu-Jitsu, Greg Velasco owns an undefeated 5-0 record comprised of two submissions, two knockouts, and one decision. Velasco has finished four out of his five victories over the course of his career in the professional ranks and has fought for Cage Fury Fighting Championships. The majority of Velasco’s wins during his time as a professional MMA fighter have been inside of two rounds. He has gone to the scorecards a single time during his pro tenure sweeping them clean across the board in that instance. Velasco has a single first round finish under his belt to go along with three second round finishes during his career as a professional mixed martial artist thus far.
