Sam Ferguson of Galo Combatives is a seasoned police officer with nearly a decade of service in Lexington, KY, and a skilled combat sports athlete specializing in grappling and striking. With extensive training in MMA, boxing, and Thai boxing, he brings a wealth of expertise to both sport and tactical contexts.

Sam is the creator of Two Point Control: Arm Tie Techniques for Edged Weapons Defense, a course he teaches at the Combatives Summit. This method focuses on using arm tie techniques to neutralize attackers wielding edged weapons, emphasizing safety and control in close-quarters encounters.

A lifelong grappler, Sam began wrestling at age 8 and now coaches high school wrestling.
