Career overview
Alonzo Menifield, known as "Atomic," carries a professional record of 17-6-1 and competes as an orthodox light heavyweight standing 6'0" with a 76-inch reach. Over his UFC tenure, Menifield has established himself as a volume striker with moderate output, landing 3.77 strikes per minute at 53% accuracy while absorbing 3.81 per minute and defending at 50%—statistics reflecting competitive exchanges typical of the light heavyweight division.
His grappling profile is minimal, averaging just 0.50 takedowns per 15 minutes at 31% accuracy, though he maintains solid 78% takedown defense. Submission threat remains limited at 0.2 per 15 minutes.
Recent results show volatility: he suffered a first-round KO loss to Volkan Oezdemir in November 2025 and an equally quick defeat to Carlos Ulberg in May 2024, bookending a submission victory over Fabio Cherant in March 2021 and a first-round KO of Paul Craig in June 2019. Most recently, Menifield secured a unanimous decision win over Oumar Sy in June 2025, suggesting renewed momentum in a division where his striking-dependent approach continues to be tested against elite competition.
