BIOGRAPHY
Danny Cross is a 28 year old pro wrestling/MMA crossover project who started training MMA relatively late in life just two years ago. An amateur wrestler on the collegiate level he had previously been preparing to make a debut for the Extreme Wrestling Corporation before having a last minute change of heart and full dedicating himself as an MMA fighter instead.
Without the backing of a high level MMA gym, Danny Cross auditioned for a spot on the show through one of the newest MMA gyms Tundra MMA and was selected by his new coaches to represent them on the show.
In the world of MMA however, he is projected as a heavy underdog heading into the GUF tournament which was further highlighted by the fact he was selected last and then later traded by Team Rossi.
