Deividas Taurosevičius (born August 28, 1977) is a Lithuanian retired mixed martial artist who last competed in the Featherweight division. A professional competitor from 2002 until 2013, he competed for the WEC, Bellator, the Cage Fury Fighting Championships, and for the New York Pitbulls of the IFL.

Background

Originally from Lithuania, Taurosevicius was a talented rugby player, competing for the national team, and winning an award given to the best player in the country in 1999. He then moved to the United States with the desire of continuing his professional career, but was not content with playing in America as he felt the sport did not have enough respect in the country. In 2002, Taurosevicius turned professional with his MMA career.[1]

Early career

Taurosevičius started his professional MMA career in 2002, primarily competing on cards in Massachusetts and New Jersey. In early 2007, he began fighting for the New York Pitbulls in the International Fight League.

Taurosevicius went 2–1 with the promotion, his lone loss being at the hands of Ryan Schultz in his last appearance, which was for the promotion's Lightweight Championship.

World Extreme Cagefighting

In September 2008, he signed with Affliction[2] and was scheduled to face Mark Hominick on the Affliction: Trilogy undercard on August 1, 2009.[3] The match was subsequently picked up by Zuffa and was scheduled to take place at WEC 43.[4] However, Hominick was replaced by Javier Vazquez. Taurosevicius won by split decision.[5]

Taurosevičius defeated previously unbeaten Mackens Semerzier via unanimous decision at WEC 46.[6]

Taurosevičius lost via majority decision to LC Davis on March 6, 2010 at WEC 47.[7]

Bellator
