Devin \u00ab\u00a0Brown Bear\u00a0\u00bb Clark : le lutteur de Sioux Falls qui a b\u00e2ti sa carri\u00e8re \u00e0 l’UFC coup par coup<\/h2>\n

Origines et formation<\/h3>\n

Devin Clark est n\u00e9 le 12 avril 1990 \u00e0 Sioux Falls, Dakota du Sud. Avant de fouler l’octogone, il construisait des maisons en tant que charpentier chez Deffenbaugh Homes \u2014 une vie d’homme de chantier qui colle parfaitement \u00e0 son surnom \u00ab\u00a0Brown Bear\u00a0\u00bb. La lutte, c’est son socle : champion de l’\u00c9tat du Dakota du Sud en lyc\u00e9e \u00e0 189 lbs, il encha\u00eene avec un titre national NJCAA en 2009 au niveau universitaire, d\u00e9crochant le statut de double All-American \u00e0 184 lbs. Il ne se tourne vers le MMA qu’en 2011, apr\u00e8s avoir boucl\u00e9 sa carri\u00e8re de lutteur.<\/p>\n

Parcours MMA et arriv\u00e9e \u00e0 l’UFC<\/h3>\n

Clark d\u00e9bute en professionnel le 4 ao\u00fbt 2013, s’imposant par KO au premier round face \u00e0 Jeremy Spelts. Il construit rapidement un bilan de 6-0, avec notamment le titre RFA des mi-lourds en avril 2016 apr\u00e8s un TKO au deuxi\u00e8me round contre Rafael Viana. C’est Dana White en personne qui le rep\u00e8re lors de l’\u00e9mission \u00ab\u00a0Dana White: Looking for a Fight\u00a0\u00bb \u2014 \u00e9pisode 6 de la saison 1 \u2014 et lui ouvre les portes de l’UFC.<\/p>\n

Sa premi\u00e8re apparition sous la banni\u00e8re UFC, le 13 juillet 2016 \u00e0 l’UFC Fight Night 91, tourne court : Alex Nicholson l’exp\u00e9die au tapis par KO au premier round (4:57). Clark rebondit aussit\u00f4t avec deux victoires aux points, contre Josh Stansbury au TUF 24 Finale (d\u00e9cembre 2016) puis Jake Collier \u00e0 l’UFC on FOX 24 (avril 2017).<\/p>\n

Les hauts et les bas de l’UFC<\/h3>\n

En octobre 2017 \u00e0 l’UFC Fight Night 118, Jan B\u0142achowicz \u2014 futur champion du monde des mi-lourds \u2014 le soumet en deux rounds. Clark encaisse la le\u00e7on et repart. En avril 2018, il neutralise Mike Rodriguez aux points \u00e0 l’UFC 223, avant de tomber face \u00e0 Aleksandar Raki\u0107 par TKO au premier round \u00e0 l’UFC 231 (d\u00e9cembre 2018). Ryan Spann le soumet en 2019, et Anthony Smith l’\u00e9trangle en moins de trois minutes en novembre 2020.<\/p>\n

Mais Clark ne s’effondre pas. Contre Alonzo Menifield \u00e0 l’UFC 250 (6 juin 2020), il prend le pari de battre un invaincu \u00e0 9-0 et l’emporte par d\u00e9cision unanime, alors qu’il \u00e9tait \u00e0 +190 de cote. En avril 2022, il cl\u00f4t un combat serr\u00e9 contre William Knight par TKO au troisi\u00e8me round \u2014 la victoire la plus propre de sa carri\u00e8re sur le fil.<\/p>\n

Son dernier combat UFC avant de quitter le roster d\u00e9but 2024 se tient le 4 f\u00e9vrier 2023 : il bat Da-un Jung aux points sur d\u00e9cision unanime \u00e0 l’UFC Fight Night. Au total, son bilan UFC est de 7 victoires et 7 d\u00e9faites sur 14 combats.<\/p>\n

Profil de combattant<\/h3>\n

Clark s’entra\u00eene \u00e0 Jackson-Wink MMA \u00e0 Albuquerque, Nouveau-Mexique. Sa base reste la lutte universitaire : pression constante, collier en cabane, control au corps-\u00e0-corps. Il n’est pas un finisher prolixe (54 % de pr\u00e9cision en frappes, mais neuf de ses quatorze victoires vont \u00e0 la d\u00e9cision), mais il sait user les gars qui n’aiment pas souffrir. 1,83 m pour une allonge de 190 cm dans la cat\u00e9gorie des mi-lourds.<\/p>\n
