One of the most highly regarded prospects ever to come out of the Northeast, Josh Grispi, who resides near Boston, is one of the best featherweights in the world. Aside from a 2006 Heel Hook loss on the local circuit, he has been stellar in his career, having finished every one of his professional wins, with almost all of the finishes coming in the first round. Grispi is a leading fighter among the new breed of mixed martial artists, as he is in his early twenties and has already toppled some of the best featherweights in the world--all in the first round--since joining the WEC in 2008. Grispi holds career victories over Mark Homonick, Micah Miller, Jens Pulver, and LC Davis.
