Josh Fremd est n\u00e9 le 15 janvier 1994 \u00e0 Connellsville, en Pennsylvanie, dans une ville ouvri\u00e8re \u00e0 une heure au sud de Pittsburgh. Lyc\u00e9en, il joue au football am\u00e9ricain et lutte. D\u00e8s le d\u00e9part, le gars est construit pour le combat.<\/p>\n<h3>De la Pennsylvanie au Colorado<\/h3>\n<p>Fremd encha\u00eene d&rsquo;abord les promotions r\u00e9gionales : ses d\u00e9buts pro en juillet 2017 \u00e0 l&rsquo;IT Fight Series, puis une apparition \u00e0 Bellator 186 en novembre 2017 o\u00f9 il soumet Ryan Parker au deuxi\u00e8me round. Il d\u00e9croche le titre des poids moyens en Pinnacle FC et construit un record solide sur la sc\u00e8ne ind\u00e9pendante, mais il sait qu&rsquo;il doit changer d&rsquo;environnement pour progresser. En 2019, il quitte la Pennsylvanie direction Englewood, Colorado, pour rejoindre Factory X \u2014 le gym de Marc Montoya o\u00f9 s&rsquo;entra\u00eenent Dustin Jacoby et Dalton Rosta. \u00ab\u00a0J&rsquo;avais besoin de ne plus \u00eatre le meilleur du gym\u00a0\u00bb, dira-t-il \u00e0 l&rsquo;\u00e9poque. Il y ajoute la ceinture violette en BJJ et affine ses outils de finition.<\/p>\n<p>La LFA devient son terrain de chasse entre 2020 et 2021 : trois KO au premier round (Lamar Gosey en ao\u00fbt 2020, Antonio Jones en octobre 2020, Bruno Oliveira en janvier 2021), avant de se heurter au futur combattant UFC Gregory Rodrigues en mai 2021 \u2014 stopp\u00e9 \u00e0 2:20 du premier round. Il rebondit avec une d\u00e9cision en octobre 2021 face \u00e0 Renato Valente, puis soumet Joel Bauman \u00e0 la t\u00e9l\u00e9 de Dana White en f\u00e9vrier 2022. Le billet UFC est sign\u00e9.<\/p>\n<h3>Un passage \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC en dents de scie<\/h3>\n<p>Son entr\u00e9e \u00e0 l&rsquo;octogone se fait le 9 avril 2022 \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC 273 face \u00e0 Anthony Hernandez : d\u00e9faite aux points sur trois rounds. Rebelote en octobre 2022 contre Tresean Gore \u2014 Fremd se prend une guillotine \u00e0 0:49 du deuxi\u00e8me round, une des sorties les plus rapides de sa carri\u00e8re. Mais il r\u00e9pond en mars 2023 en soumettant Sedriques Dumas avec sa propre guillotine au deuxi\u00e8me round, puis en d\u00e9crochant une d\u00e9cision unanime face \u00e0 Jamie Pickett en ao\u00fbt 2023. Son bilan UFC tient \u00e0 2-4 : une d\u00e9faite par KO foie contre Roman Kopylov en septembre 2023, et une derni\u00e8re d\u00e9faite aux points contre Andre Petroski en juillet 2024. En octobre 2024, il manque sa pes\u00e9e pour affronter Abdul Razak Alhassan \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC Vegas 98 \u2014 le combat est annul\u00e9 et l&rsquo;UFC le lib\u00e8re imm\u00e9diatement.<\/p>\n<h3>Le creux et le rebond<\/h3>\n<p>Apr\u00e8s la coupure, Fremd traverse une p\u00e9riode difficile. \u00ab\u00a0J&rsquo;\u00e9tais sur mon canap\u00e9, triste et d\u00e9prim\u00e9\u00a0\u00bb, racontera-t-il. C&rsquo;est Dalton Rosta, ancien partenaire d&rsquo;entra\u00eenement, qui l&rsquo;appelle pour lui proposer une place sur la carte PFL de Pittsburgh en mars 2026. Le 28 mars 2026, devant son public pennsylvanien au UPMC Events Center, Fremd r\u00e8gle son compte \u00e0 Jarrah Al-Silawi d&rsquo;un crochet gauche au troisi\u00e8me round (TKO \u00e0 3:57). Une victoire spectaculaire pour officialiser son retour, dans la ville qui lui a tout appris.<\/p>\n<p>Il a \u00e9galement un pass\u00e9 de boxeur ama \u2014 Golden Gloves \u2014 qu&rsquo;il compte exploiter puisqu&rsquo;il avait sign\u00e9 avec le BKFC avant que le PFL ne lui offre l&rsquo;opportunit\u00e9 MMA. Son prochain combat confirm\u00e9 est au PFL Charlotte le 7 ao\u00fbt 2026, face au Br\u00e9silien Jhony Gregory. Record actuel : 12-6, avec un taux de finition de 73%.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sources-article\"><strong>Sources :<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ufc.com\/athlete\/josh-fremd\">UFC.com<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.heraldstandard.com\/sports\/local-sports\/2026\/mar\/26\/battling-back\/\">Herald-Standard<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/verdictmma.com\/fighter\/josh-fremd\">VerdictMMA<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Josh Fremd, \u00ab\u00a0The Big Yinz\u00a0\u00bb, poids moyen am\u00e9ricain 12-6, ex-UFC Factory X.
