          Douglas Dedge (June 18, 1966 – March 18, 1998) was an American mixed martial artist who was the first known American competitor to be fatally injured in an MMA fight and the first death in the modern era of professional MMA.[1]

          Death

          The fatal bout occurred at the International Super Challenge in Kyiv, Ukraine, on March 16, 1998, against Yevgeni Zolotarev.

          Dedge attempted a takedown but was mounted and took 14 punches to the head before tapping out.[2] He stood up after the fight but almost immediately collapsed and died two days later from severe brain injuries at the Kiev Institute of Neurosurgery.[3] Friends later said they witnessed Dedge black out during training for the fight.[4][5]
