Dan Ige

Dan Ige is the ultimate always-game featherweight - a tough, well-rounded Hawaiian who has spent years as a top-15 contender by being willing to fight anyone, anywhere. Nothing captures that better than the time he accepted a short-notice main-event title fight against Alexander Volkanovski on essentially no preparation.

In the cage he's compact, athletic, and well-rounded, blending solid wrestling with heavy hands and real durability. During his prime he stacked up wins over notable names, and even his losses tend to come in competitive fights against the division's best.

For new fans, Ige is the kind of fighter every promotion values: reliable, dangerous, and never afraid of a challenge. He may not have worn a belt, but his toughness, power, and willingness to step up have made him one of featherweight's most respected and likable mainstays.
