Sidney Outlaw (born April 11, 1992) is an American mixed martial artist currently signed with Bellator MMA, competing in their Lightweight division. As of November 9, 2021, he is #1 in the Bellator Lightweight Rankings.[2]

Mixed Martial Arts career

Outlaw began his professional fight career February of 2013 after accomplishing an amateur record of 5-1.[3]

After competing in a number of promotions, Outlaw began his debut Bellator career at Bellator 234 on November 14, 2019 against Roger Huerta in Tel Aviv, Israel. Outlaw won via a unanimous decision after competing three rounds; showcasing his grappling expertise. Winning this co-main event allowed Outlaw to improve his win streak to nine straight.[4]

In late December of 2019, Outlaw fell to Michael Chandler, making this loss the first since his Ring of Combat fight in 2016 against Gregor Gillespie. Outlaw replaced Benson Henderson, who announced his injury earlier that month. Outlaw took this short notice fight just days after conquering Huerta in Israel. Outlaw was defeated by Chandler by way of TKO in the first round.[5]

At Outlaw’s next Bellator fight, Bellator 244, on August 21, 2020 he defeated Adam Piccolotti. This win was resolved via a split decision. Outlaw was able to control Piccolotti for most of the fight, making this Outlaw’s second win within his Bellator MMA career.[6]

Personal life

Born and raised in North Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Outlaw began his wrestling career in high school, then developing his passion for professional mixed martial arts by the age of sixteen.[7] He was a league champion and state tournament qualifier. Outlaw also holds an accomplished background competing in Brazilian jiu-jitsu.
