Brent Weedman (born February 10, 1984) is a retired American mixed martial artist who has competed in Bellator's Welterweight division. He has competed in several Bellator Tournaments, including the: Bellator Season Four Welterweight Tournament, Bellator Season 5 Welterweight Tournament, and the Bellator Season 6 Lightweight Tournament.
Weedman is from Louisville, Kentucky and began his formal training in the martial arts when he was four years old. Weedman's father, who was a police officer and a longtime martial artist himself, also ran a martial arts school. In addition to full-contact karate, Weedman began competitive judo when he was eight years old and also played football and soccer.
Weedman's professional career began in 2005. Making his debut in the HOOKnSHOOT promotion, Weedman finished his first fight with a draw after two rounds. Weedman later racked up two successive victories in the promotion before meeting future UFC veteran Gray Maynard. Weedman lost via unanimous decision, which gave Maynard his entry onto The Ultimate Fighter 5.
After a further win via TKO, Weedman was ranked as the number one 183 lb fighter in the Shooto rankings, despite him never competing in the Shooto organisation. Amongst his next fights were losses to Dan Hornbuckle via triangle choke and Anthony Lapsley via TKO due to a cut over his right eye.
