Mixed martial arts record from Sherdog

Patrick "Pat" Healy (born July 20, 1983) is an American professional mixed martial artist currently competing in the lightweight division of Titan FC. A professional competitor since 2001, Healy has also formerly competed for the UFC, Strikeforce, the WEC, the IFL, the MFC, King of the Cage, ACB and Shark Fights. His twin brother, Ryan, is also a professional mixed martial artist.

Born and raised in Salem, Oregon, Healy and his twin brother, Ryan, have been training to fight in mixed martial arts since they were 14 years old. A friend trained in Muay Thai and would spar with them, knocking out Ryan with a head kick the first time they trained, and this would result in a long line of more combat sports experience. Healy also wrestled while growing up, placing in the state finals for South Salem High School and finishing seventh while also being a four-year letterman in the sport. Healy was also a two-time All-State selection in football and later competed in collegiate wrestling for Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, which was then a Division II program.

With a record of 9-6, Healy signed on with small upstart promotion, World Extreme Cagefighting. Healy made his debut at WEC 15 against future Cage Rage World Welterweight Champion and UFC veteran, Chris Lytle, losing via a close split decision.
