Dhruv 'Psycho' Chaudhary has been a regular feature in the domestic circuit and the Super Fight League since 2013. He fights out of Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, India and is a Featherweight fighter with a professional record of 13-7 with 10 stoppages. At just 26 years of age, Dhruv Chaudhary already has 20 MMA fights under his belt, making him one of the most experienced fighters in India today.

'Psycho' has only competed in India and is yet to land an opportunity to showcase his skills overseas and make a bigger name for himself. He is already very well known in the country and has notable victories against top Indian fighters such as Mohammad Farhad, Chaitanya Gavali, and Angad Bisht. Chaudhary is one of the marquee fighters of the Indian MMA league SFL where he captained the Bengaluru Tigers in the 2017-18 season. Chaudhary last competed in June 2019, where he lost a closely fought decision to another Indian upcoming prospect, Angad Bisht.

Dhruv Chaudhary has all the skill and the personality to become a notable star for Indian MMA. He is a veteran of 20 fights already while still being young in age. An opportunity to fight for bigger promotions overseas could mean the start of global stardom for the Meerut bred 'Psycho' and he could very well be another star of Indian MMA in years to come.
