Born and raised on the Hawaiian Island of Oahu, Dan Ige is a mixed martial artist in the truest sense of the word. He mastered grappling as an NCAA wrestler in college, supplemented by judo skills and a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for a lethal combination.
After turning pro in 2014, the Hawaiian known for his fast feet and heavy hands rose through promotions including RFA, Legacy Fighting Championship, and Titan FC to reach the biggest stage in the world: The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). After making his UFC debut in 2018, Ige soon garnered a reputation for spectacular first-round knockouts that earned him several ‘Performance of the Night’ bonuses, alongside the nickname ‘50K’ (for the $50,000 payouts).
A tireless professional always striving to get better at the sport he loves, Ige credits ‘Faith, Family, Fight’ as his foundation. The UFC Featherweight division better watch out: Dan “50k” Ige is coming to collect those bonuses!
