The son of UFC Hall of Famer and multiple time divisional champion Randy Couture, Ryan Couture, will make his professional mixed martial arts debut Aug. 13 at Strikeforce Challengers X in Phoenix, Ariz.
From MMAFighting.com:
Ryan's opponent on Aug. 13 will be another fighter making his pro debut, Lucas Stark. Stark comes from a wrestling background and has competed numerous times locally for the Rage in the Cage promotion.
The 27-year-old Ryan trains out of his dad's Xtreme Couture in Las Vegas, where he also works as a gym manager.
Ryan fought to a controversial draw against 10th Planet jiu-jitsu black belt Sean Bollinger this past March, closing out his own amateur MMA career with a record of 5-1-1.
Randy Couture's ex-wife Kim also fought for Strikeforce twice, going 1-1, most recently losing to Kerry Vera by TKO in November.
