Mixed martial arts record from Sherdog |
Dustin William Pague (born August 5, 1987) is a former American mixed martial artist who most recently fought in the Bantamweight division of the UFC. He was a competitor on Spike TV's The Ultimate Fighter: Team Bisping vs. Team Miller, and has formerly competed as a Lightweight and Featherweight.
Pague is currently a Professional Boxer after announcing his switch from MMA in January, 2016.
Pague began boxing when he was 15 years old and graduated from Central Dauphin East High School, then attended Harrisburg Area Community College but transferred before eventually earning a degree. Six months after viewing a video of a UFC event, Pague began his amateur career.
After suffering a serious of back injuries throughout his MMA career, Pague decided to make the transition to Professional Boxing as a way to continue fighting and reduce the daily strain he was putting on his back.
Pague won his Professional Boxing debut on April 19, 2016 by Unanimous Decision over Rafael Davis.
In late 2008, Pague made the decision to turn professional after a successful 7-4 amateur career. Pague's pro debut took place on October 11, 2008 against Jon Owens. The fight was contested at Featherweight instead of Lightweight, where Pague spent the entirety of his amateur career. Pague lost the fight via KO in only 18 seconds. Two months after the loss, Pague returned against John Myers. He won the fight via kimura submission in round one.
Pague built up a five fight win streak before losing three straight fights to future TUF contestant Jeff Lentz, WEC veteran Anthony Leone, and longtime UFC veteran Din Thomas.
