After appearing on The Ultimate Fighter two years ago, Josh Clark went down a long and winding road to get back on the map in MMA. The Kentucky native went from being jobless to nearly losing everything he had. At one point, he questioned whether or not he should continue his career as a professional fighter.

Now headlining Resurrection Fighting Alliance 41 on July 29th, Clark will take on the undefeated Trevin Giles in San Antonio, Texas. After 10 years of competing in the grueling sport, Clark believes this is his time to shine.

Clark, also known as “The Hillbilly Heartthrob”, trains out of Xtreme Couture in Las Vegas. He has won his last four fights in a row.
