Kyle Noke was born in Queensland, Australia and began his MMA career in 2002. Noke was also a bodyguard for "Crocodile Hunter" Steve Irwin and actually would train Irwin in boxing, jiu jitsu and wrestling. Noke fought mostly in his home country picking up wins over George Sotiropoulus, Brian Ebersole and Kyacey Uscola, as well as a draw with Hector Lombard.

He would join the 11th season of the Ultimate Fighter as the first pick for Team Chuck Liddell. Noke would win his first 3 fights for the UFC including a Submission of the Night over Chris Camozzi. He would drop his next two fights to Ed Herman and Andrew Craig before getting back in the win column against Charlie Brenneman at UFC 152. In June of 2013 it was announced that Noke would coach the next season of The Ultimate Fighter Canada vs. Australia and face Patrick Cote on the finale. It was a good back and forth fight but Cote would pick up the Unanimous Decision.
