Joe Solecki Wife Kacey: Kids, Relationship, and All About UFC Star’s Marriage

Joe Solecki is going to fight Grant Dawson after the tough loss to Drakkar Klose in December last year via KO/TKO. The 30-year-old had lost to his opponent in the first round of Fight Night last year. Solecki has 13 wins and 4 losses and fights in the lightweight category. The fighter is adept at jiu-jitsu and grappling. He might have lost to Klose, but he is back in training to regain his position.

He never backs down and is back to face the promising lightweight fighter Dawson in UFC 302 prelims on June 1. Ahead of this bout, let’s take a look at his family and his wife, who are always supporting him.

Who is Joe Solecki’s wife Kacey?

The 30-year-old was born in New Jersey and the American national started his martial arts journey surprisingly by accident. He was inspired by the Power Rangers’ show and started his combat training at the age of 6. He has had 13 pro MMA victories and 7 first-round submissions. Apart from the world of mixed martial arts, the Wenonah native loves his family a lot and has two kids with his wife, Kacey.

The fighter got married in 2018 to his “best friend” who is also a fitness enthusiast and they have two children together, Silas and Nora. The duo welcomed their first child in September 2020, and that was a pivotal time for him because he was also getting ready to fight Austin Hubbard. Fortunately, Solecki won the fight for the lightweight category in August 2020, and his daughter was born shortly after that.

He is a complete family man and his daughter Nora and son Silas, who was born in July 2023, are his lifeline. In 2021, he told Thomas Gerbasi as per UFC’s official website, “I was telling my wife if I could fight and then I get done and my coaches get to stand in the cage and talk about what they saw and get a little bit of notoriety and get their moment in the sun, and I can go home and dump the bag of money on the table to my wife and daughter and go back to training on Monday, that’s my reward.”

He also commented on how both he and his wife put fighting first because, without this grind, he would not be able to have his family. Joe Solecki’s livelihood and a good life for his kids come from fighting. Since his fight with Dawson is coming up, let’s see his prep for it!

Is Grant Dawson a difficult opponent for Joe Solecki?

The American is gearing up to get the burns of his last loss soothed this time, but this is an uphill battle. The BJJ black belt is facing an equally amazing fighter, Grant Dawson, who boasts a record of 20-2-1. Dawson will be hoping to bounce back following his last defeat against Bobby Green in October 2023 as he has an eye to break into the top 15 in the 155-pound division. If Solecki can manage to win against Dawson, then he has better days coming his way.

Dawson is going through an unorthodox training process for his UFC 302. In a recent video by ESPN, the 30-year-old was learning moves from a Star Wars stunt double, and those moves were of Jedi. The die-hard fan of Star Wars was training to become a Jedi as well as a UFC fighter, and this collaboration was to promote UFC 302 and the premiere of ‘THE Acolyte’ on Disney Plus.
