Some fans might not remember it, but Mike Perry and Al Iaquinta had a brief feud several years back. The welterweight and lightweight will have the opportunity to settle their feud — if it still exists — in a grappling match at SUG 11.

The grappling promotion, which is the brainchild of former UFC and Bellator star Chael Sonnen, announced this exciting Perry vs. Iaquinta clash on Instagram.

The SUG 11 card will also include a contest between former Strikeforce champ Jake Shields and Richie Martinez, and an appearance from Bellator star Austin Vanderford—the husband of UFC star Paige VanZant.

Speaking of spouses, Perry’s wife and cornerwoman Danielle Nickerson will also be competing on the card.
