Mixed martial arts career

Early career

Mulhern got his start into mixed martial arts when he began training jiu-jitsu as a teenager. In 2007, Mulhern made his professional debut at a Gladiator Challenge event. He fought and defeated Randy Blackwell midway through the first round via submission.[1] His next two fights were both under the King of the Cage banner, both fight were wins for Mulhern, one submission and one close split decision.

After earning a record of 7-0, Mulhern took on the much more experienced, Chris Brennan. Mulhern dominated the fight and won via first round submission using the rare omoplata maneuver. The win earned him a title fight against current UFC fighter, Mike Guymon. The fight was back and forth but late in the fourth round, Guymon defeated Mulhern via TKO, retaining his title.

Mulhern bounced back from his loss to Guymon by defeating Ultimate Fighting Championship veteran Rich Clementi at King of the Cage: Vengeance on February 12, 2010.[2] This bout was a part of King of the Cage's debut on HDNet.

Mulhern captured the King of the Cage Welterweight Championship on March 26, 2010 by defeating Koffi Adzitso at King of the Cage: Legacy. He most recently defeated Joey Gorczynski at King of the Cage: Honor.

Mulhern defended his title for the first time against Levi Stout, defeating Stout via first round submission.

On December 4, 2010, Mulhern defeated the Canadian King of the Cage Welterweight belt holder Garret Davis in a unanimous decision at King of the Cage: Black Ops. This event unified the Canadian King of the Cage and World King of the Cage welterweight titles.[3]

Strikeforce

On May 6, 2011, it was announced that Mulhern had signed a multi-fight deal with Strikeforce.[4] He made his debut at Strikeforce Challengers: Fodor vs. Terry and lost to Jason High via unanimous decision.

Mulhern remained busy with the promotion, having won his next two bouts in Strikeforce on their Challengers series in September and November 2011. He returned in May 2012 as he faced highly touted Brazilian prospect Yuri Villefort at Strikeforce: Barnett vs. Cormier and won the fight via split decision.
