The last time Ricky Simon competed in his home state of Washington was on March 4, 2016.
He suffered his first professional loss, eight fights into his professional career. Just a year-and-a-half later, Simon went on to compete on Dana White’s Contender Series, where he won a split decision over Donavon Frelow, before making his UFC debut a few years later in 2018.
