Dan Bobish is one of the most popular and richest MMA Fighter who was born on January 26, 1970 in Brooklyn, New York State, United States. He won the King of the Cage Super Heavyweight Championship on February 9, 2002, by scoring a TKO against Eric Pele.
His first time being KO’d came at the hands of Ben Rothwell.
Born in Brooklyn, New York but raised in Cleveland, Ohio, Bobish was an all- state wrestler and played football at Maple Heights High School before competing at Cuyahoga Community College where he was a NCJAA All-American. Bobish later transferred to the University of Mount Union, where in two seasons he went 58-2 and was the 1992 NCAA Division III Super Heavyweight National Champion during his senior season, after having finished third as a junior. He was also a three-time All-American. Bobish also played football as a defensive tackle for one season at Mount Union, and later had a tryout with the Cleveland Browns. After failing, he started to work as a bouncer at the Beach club, where he gained a reputation of being a strong fighter. He claimed, “I never got beat one-on-one in a fight. Even two-on-one.”
Bobish made his professional debut on October 22, 1996 in Brazil at the Universal Vale Tudo Fighting 4 Heavyweight tournament. He first faced Brazilian jiu-jitsu fighter Mauro Bernardo, whom he defeated in a first-round submission by taking him down and choking him with his forearm. Bobish would find another wrestler and UFC veteran in the second round, Dave Beneteau, but Bobish controlled the bout with a guillotine choke with several strikes, eventually getting the win by a cut. He then fought yet another wrestler and UFC veteran, fellow NCAA collegiate champion Kevin Randleman from Team Hammer House, for the final. Bobish controlled the first minutes from the clinch, attempting neck cranks and landing several punches, but Randleman escaped. The two then exchanged hard strikes, with Bobish getting the better of it, but Randleman scored a takedown and mounted him, from where he landed several strikes. Two of the hits dislocated Bobish’s jaw, forcing him to give up.
He was born in Brooklyn, New York.
