Josh Copeland really made a name for himself in the Squared Circle in a late notice replacement against the current heavyweight champion in Ben Rothwell where he put on an all-time performance. After the fight, you could tell the two had a war and despite the loss on his side in the history books, neither fighter lost that night.

Before making his debut against Levi Costa, Copeland fought mixed martial arts, earning an 18-7-1 record. Copeland's power, chin and technical striking are a handful for absolutely anyone. He has earned multiple titles in various promotions and spent some time in the UFC fighting a high level of competition which has earned him fighting knowledge that only few have the advantage of. He will never say no to a fight and leans into the violence of bare-knuckle. He’s trained with some high level heavyweights, even in recent times like Curtis Blaydes and Mohammed Usman.

‘Cuddly Bear’ is a humble, softer-spoken fighter that lets his fighting do the talking in the Squared Circle. He is a father and spends all of his free time with his kids taking them to baseball games and doing cub scouts activities. He likes to bring his son to his fights and is proud of his work in and outside of fighting.
