Kron Gracie is returning to MMA on Dec. 12 when he faces Tom Picciano for the Victory Fighting League featherweight title in New York, the promotion announced Saturday.
Gracie (5-3) left the UFC after losing three in a row between 2019 and 2024, a pair of decisions to Cub Swanson and Charles Jourdain, followed by a knockout to Bryce Mitchell.
The son of Rickson Gracie is one of the most decorated grapplers to ever transition to MMA, starting his fighting career with five finishes in a row after claiming major grappling championships, from IBJJF world title to ADCC gold medal.
Long Island’s own Picciano (7-3) enters the cage riding a two-fight winning streak, most recently a first-round rear-naked choke over Jay Pressley in his VFL debut.
