Gable Steveson is out to prove a point in his Dirty Boxing debut.

An Olympic gold medalist in freestyle wrestling, Stevenson (1-0) is going out of his comfort zone for his Dirty Boxing debut against Billy Swanson at DBX 4 on Oct. 30. Dirty Boxing is a custom-rules boxing match that allows elbows and ground-and-pound. Steveson explained that he wants to show the world that he can strike as well as wrestle.

“This is the best thing for me because I want to answer all these questions,” Steveson told MMA Junkie.
