Chris Daukaus (/ˈdɔːkəs/ DAW-kəs; born September 25, 1989) is an American mixed martial artist who competes in the Heavyweight division of Cage Fury Fighting Championships. He previously competed for the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). He is the older brother of former UFC fighter Kyle Daukaus.

Background

[edit]

Daukaus was raised in Northeast Philly in the Tacony neighborhood. In 2007, Chris graduated from Northeast Catholic High School, and became a resident of Parkwood, Philadelphia.[3] After graduating, he attended Pennsylvania State University before dropping out.[4] He started training in mixed martial arts a year prior to enrolling into the police academy in order to fill the void of sports and competition after high school, and to follow in the footsteps of his father who was also a police officer.[4]

Mixed martial arts career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

A professional since October 2013 and representing Martinez BJJ, Daukaus compiled an 8–3 record in 11 career bouts as a professional, winning by seven knockouts and one decision. Daukaus has competed with CES MMA, Cage Fury Fighting Championships, and Ring Of Combat. He has finished seven of his eight professional victories. In his MMA debut at XFE Cage Wars 27, he defeated Robert Duvalle via TKO in the first round. Daukaus also defeated Jeffrey Blachly via TKO in round two in his debut appearance with Cage Fury Fighting Championships at CFFC 50. He defeated Blachly a second time via a unanimous decision at CFFC 62. Then at KOTC Regulator, Daukaus defeated Anthony Coleman via TKO in the first round. He also defeated Plinio Cruz via TKO in round one at CFFC 69. For his lone outing with CES MMA at CES MMA 52 Daukaus defeated Joshua Marsh via TKO in the second round.

At Ring Of Combat 65, he faced Edwin Smart and defeated him via technical knockout in round one to earn the sixth knockout victory of his professional career.[5]

Daukaus suffered a loss to Zu Anyanwu in a bout for the Cage Fury FC Heavyweight Championship at CFFC 73 on March 2, 2019. Daukaus was clearly winning that fight before a big shot changed the complexion of it quickly and Daukaus was knocked out.[6]

He then faced Danny Holmes at CFFC 77 on August 16, 2019. He won the fight via first-round technical knockout.[7]

Daukaus was then scheduled to face Shawn Teed for the Cage Fury FC Heavyweight Championship in a rematch at CFFC 82 on March 21, 2020.[8] However, the whole event was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[9] The event and the championship bout was rescheduled to take place at August 12, 2020. However, Daukaus signed with the UFC in early August and was replaced by Carl Seumanutafa.[10]

Daukaus was scheduled to face Khalil Rountree Jr. on June 10, 2023 at UFC 289.[29] However on June 2, 2023, it was revealed that Daukaus suffered injury and was pulled from the card.[30] The bout with Rountree was rescheduled for August 12, 2023 at UFC on ESPN: Luque vs. dos Anjos.[31] Daukaus lost the fight via technical knockout in round one.[32]

After the loss, it was announced that Daukaus was no longer on the UFC roster.[33]
