BIOGRAPHY Nate "Rock" Quarry, born March 18, 1972, in Gresham, Oregon is an American mixed martial arts fighter who is most notable for his appearance in "The Ultimate Fighter", a reality show from the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
Quarry grew up as a member of the Jehovah's Witnesses, which he later characterized as a cult that controls its members 24 hours a day. Quarry grew up in a sheltered lifestyle and did not even participate in organized sports until age 24, when he first became exposed to mixed martial arts. After a period of self-discovery, Quarry rejected his Jehovah's Witness upbringing, which caused him to become alienated from his family and former friends. He began to associate with others outside of the church, and along the way began to train in mixed martial arts fighting.
Quarry made his professional mixed martial arts debut in 2001, in a match against Drew McFedries, which he won with a TKO in the second round. He made his UFC debut on The Ultimate Fighter finale card in 2005, where he defeated Lodune Sincaid by TKO. In 2006, Quarry suffered an injury but returned the following to the UFC on September 19, 2007 at UFC Fight Night 11, where he for the second time won a KO victory over rival Pete Sell. And in 2008, at UFC 83, he defeated Kalib Starnes in a decision.
As of 2009, Quarry acheived 10 wins; 6 by knockout; 2 by submission and only 3 losses. View GALLERY:
