Jeremy Graham Horn (born August 25, 1975) is an American mixed martial artist currently competing in the Middleweight division. Although Horn is perhaps best known for fighting in smaller American promotions, he has also competed in some of the premiere mixed martial arts organizations around the world including the UFC, WEC, PRIDE, Bellator, Pancrase, the IFL, King of the Cage, and the International Fighting Championships (IFC). Horn is the former King of the Cage Light Heavyweight Champion. Horn has also competed in the Heavyweight and Light Heavyweight divisions.
Horn was born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska, and has two half-brothers, Sid and Matt Anderson, along with his younger brother Marshall Horn. All of the boys were raised by their single mother, Ruth. Horn's mother worked many odd jobs, sometimes working 16 hours a day, to support her family. Horn often fought bullies when he was in school, and began training when he was 12 years old, along with his brother Matt. Before becoming a full-time mixed martial arts fighter, Horn worked in construction. He is known for his durability, with an amazing 118 total fights in his career, as well as his world-class grappling skills with 62 of his 91 wins by submission.
Horn's early martial arts training was under Robert Bussey's Warrior International founder, Robert Bussey. Horn earned a RBWI black belt under Bussey in 1992, and spent most of his career with the Miletich Fighting Systems team in Iowa. Horn is currently training in Salt Lake City, Utah with Elite Performance, the team that he created.
