Luke Joseph Cummo (born April 27, 1980 in New Hyde Park, New York), nicknamed "The Silent Assassin", is a mixed martial arts fighter who appeared in the second season of the reality TV series The Ultimate Fighter on Spike TV. After winning two exhibition fights, he made it to the finals where he was defeated by Joe Stevenson by decision in a close bout. Cummo gained recognition on the show due to his personality, unorthodox diet, and his striking ability. He was also the last person picked for a team on the show, fighting throughout the show as the underdog.

Cummo fights out of Long Island, New York and works with Serra Jiu-Jitsu and Ray Longo's IMAA. After his performance on The Ultimate Fighter finale, he was signed to a contract by the UFC. Although his grappling ability has been improving, his primary style remains Muay Thai kickboxing. He also holds a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu blue belt.

In his first match under a UFC contract at UFC Ultimate Fight Night 4, he defeated Jason Von Flue via unanimous decision.
