Mixed martial arts record from Sherdog |
Jason DeLucia (born July 24, 1969) is an American retired mixed martial artist. [1]
DeLucia is remembered by UFC enthusiasts for being in the very first fight (and the very first win) in UFC history. At UFC 2: No Way Out, DeLucia fought Royce Gracie and lost via armbar submission. After DeLucia tapped out, Gracie did not let go of the armbar and the commentator claimed his elbow had popped ("popped a capsule"). However, DeLucia denied this in a Sherdog.com forum, saying it was just badly bent. [2] DeLucia infamously once suffered a ruptured liver against MMA legend Bas Rutten at Pancrase: Truth 6 on June 25, 1996. [3]
Several years before they fought in UFC 2, DeLucia and Gracie went up against each other in a "Gracie Challenge" match at Royce's brother Rorion Gracie's jiu-jitsu school. The match can be seen on Youtube and in the "Gracie in Action 2" DVD.
He has reportedly trained in Aikido, Karate, Taekwondo, Judo, Kung Fu, along with Shootfighting.

KO PUNCHES
Mixed martial arts (MMA) is a full-contact combat sport based on striking, grappling and ground fighting, incorporating techniques from various combat sports from around the world. The first documented use of the term mixed martial arts was in a review of UFC 1 by television critic Howard Rosenberg in 1993.
Vale Tudo or vale-tudo, also known as No Holds Barred (NHB) in the United States, is an unarmed, full-contact combat sport with relatively few rules. It became popular in Brazil during the 20th century and would eventually evolve into modern mixed martial arts (MMA). For years, "Vale Tudo" was used as a synonym for MMA in Brazil, but the term fell into disuse due to the emergence of stricter rules and the influence of the media to have a more "civilized" name. It is now used to refer to an early, more rules-free stage of the modern sport.
