Alex Cook (born 2 May 1973) is a retired Australian[1] mixed martial artist.

Cook is a veteran of the Shooto and Pancrase organizations, making his debut in 1994 to a loss to Manabu Yamada at Pancrase: Road To The Championship 5. After frequent losses to Ken Shamrock and Masakatsu Funaki, Cook would later jump to Shooto with fellow Australian fighter and trainer Larry Papadopoulos with better success such as a win over Jutaro Nakao. He compiled a 4-2 record during his time in Shooto and would later depart the organization in 2000.
