About Rashad Evans
Born on September 25, 1979 in Niagara Falls, United States, Rashad Evans "Suga" competes as a light heavyweight mixed martial artist. At 6' 0", Evans has a 75" reach, long for that height.
Evans turned professional in 2004, debuting with Dangerzone. A 5-0 record outside the UFC came first. Evans first fought in the UFC at The Ultimate Fighter: Team Hughes vs. Team Franklin Finale in November 2005 and beat Brad Imes by decision. Across 23 fights in the UFC, Evans is 14-8-1. Evans first won a UFC title fight at UFC 92: The Ultimate 2008, beating Forrest Griffin.

In the stats, Evans avoids strikes better than 92% of light heavyweights and lands more takedowns per 15 minutes than 82% of light heavyweights. Notable wins include Tito Ortiz, Quinton Jackson, Forrest Griffin and Chuck Liddell, all UFC title-fight winners.

After 23 months away, Evans returned at UFC 192: Cormier vs Gustafsson in October 2015 and lost to Ryan Bader.
