Billy Quarantillo

Billy Quarantillo, a 35-year-old American orthodox fighter, holds an 18-7 record and has posted a 4-4 split across his last eight UFC appearances. Quarantillo operates as a volume striker with moderate takedown threat, landing 7.44 strikes per minute at 54% accuracy while absorbing 5.83 per minute and maintaining 61% takedown defense.

His submission average of 1.0 per 15 minutes and knockout score of 11.6 indicate he possesses finishing capability, particularly in the later rounds—evidenced by third-round TKO victories over Kyle Nelson in September 2020 and Gabriel Benitez in July 2021. However, recent results have been inconsistent; he dropped a unanimous decision to Shane Burgos in November 2021 and suffered a second-round submission loss to Youssef Zalal in March 2024 before being stopped by Cub Swanson via knockout in December 2024.

Quarantillo's 24% takedown accuracy and modest striking defense at 42% suggest he operates best when dictating range and pace on the feet rather than pursuing wrestling. At featherweight, he remains a capable mid-tier competitor capable of producing finishes but needs to string together consecutive wins to re-establish relevance in a competitive division.
