Jason Guida (born August 4, 1977) is an American professional mixed martial artist and grappler who has fought for ShoXC, World Extreme Cagefighting, Bellator, Konfrontacja Sztuk Walki, Adrenaline MMA, World Extreme Fighting and Ironheart Crown. Jason is the older brother of Ultimate Fighting Championship veteran Clay Guida.
Guida appeared on The Ultimate Fighter: Team Nogueira vs. Team Mir and was eliminated in the first episode for failing to make the 206 lb weight limit by one pound.
Following this, as a last minute replacement for Ken Shamrock, Guida faced former WWE pro wrestling star Bobby Lashley. Guida lost via unanimous decision. Before his bout with Lashley, he and Guida got in a scuffle at a pre-fight press conference that had to be broken up by Roy Jones Jr..
Guida then suffered losses to UFC veteran Jeremy Horn and top Chechen contender Mamed Khalidov, but overcame his losing streak with a knockout win over former UFC fighter Logan Clark, ending the fight with a barrage of punches in the first round in Clark's hometown of Rochester, Minnesota.
