Sidney Outlaw
Sidney Outlaw (born April 11, 1992) is an American mixed martial artist who competes in the Lightweight division. A professional since 2013, he has competed in promotions such as Bellator MMA and Titan FC.
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. He was a league champion and state tournament qualifier. Outlaw also holds an accomplished background competing in Brazilian jiu-jitsu.
From the age of 19 till 27, when he signed with Bellator, Outlaw was homeless on and off. He would train in the day, and then work until 2 am every day, before being back in the gym at 9 am. He made his amateur debut as a teenage in high school, discovering MMA after moving out to the Souderton, Pennsylvania due to his mother wanting to move Sidney out of the crime ridden area they grew up in.
At the age of 18, Sidney decided to move to New Jersey to train with the likes of Frankie Edgar and Eddie Alvarez.
Making his debut at Cage Fury Fighting Championships 19, he won his debut via second round TKO stoppage, before winning his next bout via third round submission under the Ring of Combat banner. Then he got the call to fight at Bellator 118, where he won a unanimous decision over Mike Bannon. He would suffer his first loss against Nick Browne at WSOF 13, losing by TKO stoppage 25 seconds into the bout. Complications between his manager and the promotion left him unaware he was even fighting until a week out from the event, leading him to undergo a drastic, rapid weight cut.
After going 2-1 in his next three bouts, Outlaw faced future UFC fighter Gregor Gillespie at Ring of Combat 55 in June 2016. Despite taking Gillespie's back late in the first round and close to securing the rear-naked choke, only being denied by the bell ending the round, Outlaw lost the close bout via split decision.
