Chris Sanford (born March 12, 1968) is an American retired mixed martial artist who has competed in the Ultimate Fighting Championship and World Extreme Cagefighting. He appeared on the first season of The Ultimate Fighter.

Background

Sanford was born in Roxbury, Boston. He lived in Japan as a high school exchange student and also studied Japanese language and economics at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst.

He practiced various forms of martial arts, like taekwondo, kung fu and boxing.[1]

Mixed martial arts career

Early career: World Extreme Cagefighting

Sanford started his mixed martial arts career in 2001. He fought mainly for California–based promotions as World Extreme Cagefighting and Gladiator Challenge.

He amassed a perfect record of four victories and no defeats before being signed to compete on the original season of The Ultimate Fighter.

The Ultimate Fighter

Sanford signed in to compete as a middleweight and was the last middleweight pick of Team Couture. However, he never fought on the show, as he was sent home by Couture in the second episode after his team lost the team challenges.[3]

Ultimate Fighting Championship

Despite being eliminated early on the show, he was awarded a chance to fight at The Ultimate Fighter 1 Finale against fellow housemate Josh Koscheck.[4] He was knocked out at 4:21 in the first round and was subsequently released from the promotion.

Return to WEC

Sanford faced Josh Green on August 18, 2005 at WEC 16. He won via submission due to a guillotine choke in the very first round.[5]

Sanford never fought again since 2005.[6]
