Brendan Allen is an American mixed martial artist who is known for his incredible grappling skills which make him a feared opponent when the fight is taken to the ground. He has been extremely successful in his career so far, winning 12 of his 14 fights with 7 wins by submission.
He has lost to Sean Strickland and Chris Curtis by TKO, but he has not lost in years, sitting on a 7-fight win streak, with his last fight against Chris Curtis ending in a decision win less than 6 months ago.
