Shawn Bunch (born March 19, 1983) is an American mixed martial artist who competed in Bellator's bantamweight division.

Bunch competed in high school for Leavenworth High School in Leavenworth, Kansas and in college for Edinboro University, where he was a four-time NCAA qualifier and two-time All-American. He was also a U.S. national and Pan American champion, and two-time Olympic alternate at 133 lb (60 kg). In June 2012, he lost to Coleman Scott at a wrestle-off, which decided the final Olympic roster spot.

Bunch/Garcia eventually took place on October 25, 2013, at Bellator 105. He had his first mixed martial arts defeat via TKO in the third round.
