Felipe Pena To Face Luke Griffith For WNO Heavyweight Title At WNO 31

The heavyweight title is vacant and up for grabs when Luke Griffith and Felipe Pena face off at WNO 31, in a titanic matchup between the #1 and #2 ranked heavyweight grapplers on Earth. This massive title matchup will be going down live exclusively on FloGrappling, from Round Rock, TX on December 5th in the Kalahari Events Center.

This showdown is a rematch from both the dramatic 2024 ADCC World finals (which saw Pena score a dramatic come from behind submission win after surviving an early onslaught from Griffith) and CJI 2's team semifinal (where Pena submitted Griffith after Luke had just submitted one of Felipe's teammates). Griffith has shown massive improvements and slimmed down to improve his conditioning and is confident the rematch will be a different story with the title on the line in WNO rules.

The heavyweight title has been vacated by Gordon Ryan due to his continued struggles with his health and his focus on the evolving Kingsway Jiu-Jitsu team in Austin, TX. This first heavyweight title matchup after his dominant run will be between his prime heavyweight disciple in Luke and his chief rival in Felipe Pena. More than just gold will be on the line in Round Rock.

This match headlines the card that will feature three title fights and many more consequential matchups. There are more matches coming so stay tuned to FloGrappling for all the major updates.
