Kalib Starnes (born January 6, 1975) is a Canadian mixed martial artist.
Early life
Starnes became involved in the martial arts at an early age and began teaching when he was a teenager. He started training in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu at the Gracie Academy in 1994 in Torrance, California. Starnes has also practiced Muay Thai, Boxing, Judo, Aikido, Kung Fu, Taekwondo, Greco Roman Wrestling, Shotokan and Wado Ryu Karate.
Mixed martial arts career
Ultimate Fighting Championship
Starnes made his UFC debut on June 24, 2006 at the finale of The Ultimate Fighter 3, winning via rear naked choke over Danny Abbadi.
After this Starnes would gain the biggest victory in his career, by defeating Chris Leben on May 26, 2007 at UFC 71 via unanimous decision, also winning the Fight of The Night bonus for his efforts.
During the UFC 64 event, Starnes suffered a third-round TKO to Yushin Okami.[2]
In his final UFC bout, he lost via unanimous decision to Nate Quarry at UFC 83 in Montreal Canada. Starnes was criticized by MMA pundits and fans for avoiding Quarry for the majority of the match, leading to a new nickname, "The Running Man." Many speculate that his poor performance in this fight was one of the main reasons he was released by the UFC.
