Nick Osipczak

Nicholas Dominic Osipczak (born 30 December 1984) is an American-English professional mixed martial artist, most famous for his fights and wins in the welterweight division of the UFC.

Being a diligent martial arts practitioner, he soon won the UK National Kung Fu Open Weight Championship.

However, Nick was inspired to take up MMA after watching UFC's Ultimate Knockouts DVD, and started searching out the best places and coaches to train with up and down the United Kingdom.

After two years of training in MMA and helping others too, Osipczak also began competing in the UK, and went undefeated in all his amateur and semi-professional bouts.

[2] The opponent for his third professional bout accepted a “winner-takes-all” deal, and Osipczak won by rear naked choke, taking his record to 3–0.

He first defeated the British MMA professional fighter Tommy Maguire by knock out in the first round in an elimination match, earning him the trip to Las Vegas, Nevada, to compete on the show.

Osipczak defeated Miller via a second-round knockout from a powerful head kick, which was voted in the top 15 all-time TUF knock-outs.

Riddle countered the statement by saying that he considers Osipczak without considerable experience against wrestlers, which he attributed to the wider lack of wrestling training of UK MMA fighters.

Osipczak was upset by Duane Ludwig at UFC 122 in Oberhausen, Germany, via a split decision, which again sparked some controversy.

Held in the Arena:MK, Milton Keynes, Nick faced boxing-specialist Kyle Redfearn, and defeated him via submission (RNC) 2 minutes 4 seconds into the first round.
