Physiotherapist Dr Manoj Attri: Indian wrestler turned MMA fighter Sangram Singh is intensifying preparations for his upcoming mixed martial arts (MMA) bout with the support of a seven-member team that closely monitors every aspect of his training, from coaching and flexibility sessions to weight training, yoga and pranayama.

The Commonwealth heavyweight wrestling champion and Fit India Movement icon has been training across multiple cities, including Mumbai, Ahmedabad and Delhi, as part of his preparations. While his sparring partners change depending on the location of training, his core coaching staff remains constant and continues to guide him through the process.

Sangram's next MMA fight is scheduled for Sunday, April 5, in Tigre, Buenos Aires, Argentina, where he will face 24-year-old French fighter, Matteo Monteiro. Monteiro is 17 years younger than Sangram, making the contest a significant challenge. The bout will also mark the first time an Indian MMA fighter competes on Argentine soil.
