Disaster at Polaris! Top European Grapplers hit by food poisoning | Ep.37

from Unknown Pressures – A Jiu-Jitsu Podcast · host Unknown Pressures

Patreon: https://patreon.com/UnknownPressures | Last weekend, Team Polaris had to battle a rival Brazilian squad while dealing with stomach upsets and worse courtesy of Conor McGregor's pub, the Black Forge. It's a miracle only one team member, poor Polish submission hunter Mateusz Szczecinski, withdrew from the event. That didn't stop the mostly-European team from running away with the win after a series of performances that became even more impressive when you consider their predicament. It added an extra layer of intrigue to Polaris's first event on Irish soil, which was warmly welcomed by the local grappling community. In Episode 37 of Unknown Pressures we discuss: Polaris Squads: Team Polaris vs Team BJJ Stars Why Hywel doesn't speak with Mackenzie Dern any more UFC BJJ: Title Defences, Job Opportunities and more Opens Horrific incident at the ADCC Open in Atlanta and more!
