Jason DeLucia

Jason DeLucia (born July 24, 1969) is an American retired mixed martial artist.

Biography
DeLucia is remembered by UFC enthusiasts for being in the very first fight (and the very first win) in UFC history. At UFC 2: No Way Out, DeLucia fought Royce Gracie and lost via armbar submission. After DeLucia tapped out, Gracie did not let go of the armbar and the commentator claimed his elbow had popped ("popped a capsule"). However, DeLucia denied this in a Sherdog.com forum, saying it was just badly bent. DeLucia infamously once suffered a ruptured liver against MMA legend Bas Rutten at Pancrase: Truth 6 on June 25, 1996.

Several years before they fought in UFC 2, DeLucia and Gracie went up against each other in a "Gracie Challenge" match at Royce's brother Rorion Gracie's jiu-jitsu school. The match can be seen on Youtube and in the "Gracie in Action 2" DVD.

He has reportedly trained in Aikido, Karate, Taekwondo, Judo, Kung Fu, along with Shootfighting.
