Chase Gormley

Chase Gormley (born August 11, 1983) is an American professional mixed martial artist and bare-knuckle boxer, currently competing in the Heavyweight division of the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC). A professional competitor since 2007, he has competed for the UFC, Bellator, the MFC, the RFA, King of the Cage, the XFC, Absolute Championship Berkut, and Titan FC, where he was Heavyweight Champion.

Born and raised in Torrance, California, Gormley began training in MMA at the age of 13. A wrestler at Torrance High School, he continued at Montana State University - Northern, before transferring to Lindenwood University, where he was a NAIA All-American.

Gormley made his professional mixed martial arts debut in April 2007. He defeated his first six opponents, before his stint with the UFC.

Gormley was expected to face Ben Rothwell at Affliction: Trilogy on August 1, 2009. However, the bout was moved to UFC 104, on October 24, after Affliction Entertainment ceased operations. As a result of a number of bouts being shuffled, Gormley's opponent was changed to Stefan Struve. Gormley lost the fight due to a triangle choke submission in the first round.

Gormley faced journeyman Brendan Schaub at UFC Live: Vera vs. Jones on March 21, 2010. He lost the fight via TKO in the first round. After the loss to Schaub, he was subsequently released from the UFC.

In July 2015, Bellator revealed that they had signed Gormley to an exclusive, multi-fight contract.

In his promotional debut, Gormley was defeated by Dan Charles at Bellator 143 on September 25, 2015, via knockout in the second round.

Gormley faced Joey Beltran at Bellator 155 on May 20, 2016. He won the fight via split decision.
