GRANT DAWSON

Representing American Top Team, Grant Dawson competes in the UFC lightweight ranks.

Since earning his promotional contract via the Contender Series back in 2017, he has consistently climbed the ladder. Throughout his tenure, he has accumulated significant victories over seasoned competitors such as Damir Ismagulov, Carlos Diego Ferreira, and Mateusz Rebecki.

Entering this upcoming contest with an overall professional record of 24-3-1, Dawson’s recent performances have been varied.
