Drew McFedries Wiki Wiki Page
Once a stellar young prospect fighting out of the famed H.I.T. Squad in Bettendorf, Iowa, UFC middleweight fighter Drew McFedries has produced some of the most devastating knockouts in the promotion’s history, having finished Alessio Sakara, Jordan Radev, Marvin Eastman, and Xavier Foupa-Pokam with crushing blows during his time in the Octagon. Although he is a powerful striker, McFedries has proven to be susceptible to ground fighters, having lost the majority of his UFC fights by way of submission.
Outside of his athletic career, McFedries has struggled with Crohn’s disease for a long time, and recently lost his mother to homicide.

He's won just three out of his past twelve fights (which could be worse *cough* Sean Salmon *cough*) and he had to suffer through this hellacious a...

The headlining preliminary card fight at UFC 154 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada is a fan-friendly middleweight showdown between knockout artists Patrick Cote (17-8 MMA, 4-8 UFC) and Alessio Sakara (15-9, 1 NC MMA, 6-6 1 NC UFC).
