Bao Quach is a Vietnamese-American Featherweight professional mixed martial artist who has fought for Bellator, Affliction, M-1 Global, EliteXC, Strikeforce, World Extreme Cagefighting, King of the Cage, and Shooto promotions.

Background

Quach is originally from Huntington Beach, California and attended Dana Hills High School where he excelled in wrestling and was a state qualifier. He continued wrestling at Cerritos College before earning a degree from Cal State Fullerton.[3]

Affliction: Day of Reckoning

Bao Quach agreed to step in for Mark Hominick to face LC Davis at Affliction: Day of Reckoning as Hominick was forced off due to contracting pneumonia.[4] This was Bao's first fight since coming back from his injury which cancelled his 140 lb EliteXC Featherweight Championship fight with Wilson Reis back in September.[5] Quach lost the fight via unanimous decision.

Filmography and other media

Bao was featured in the Australian film The Heartbreak Kid in 1993 when he was only 13 years old.[6] Quach is also featured in the 2011 video game Supremacy MMA.
