Anthony Ivy Welterweight on the Rise
Anthony Ivy arrived on the regional MMA scene nearly a decade ago. Now thirty five and training out of WAR Training Center in San Antonio Texas he stands six feet two and carries the nickname Aquaman into the cage. Over twenty two professional fights he has compiled fifteen wins and seven losses and built his career inside the US Southwest and Texas circuits.
A surge of activity inside those two sub regions has vaulted Ivy to number eight in the North America welterweight rankings. He also holds spots in the Southwest and Texas tables after meeting the threshold of at least two fights out of his last six in each. His slot in the top ten is the product of a pair of welterweight outings that have kept him in the division and on a steady path through local promotions and emerging platforms.
That consistency and regional acumen align Ivy as a fixture rather than a flash in the pan. His record includes more decisions than finishes which speaks to an approach built on pacing and adaptability. Ivy’s standing at eight sets a clear bar for any opponent who tests his movement and cardio on the regional circuit.
