Deiveson Figueiredo
Career overview
Deiveson Figueiredo holds a professional record of 25-6-1 and competes as an orthodox-stance fighter standing 5'5" with a 68-inch reach. The Brazilian veteran operates as a well-rounded mixed martial artist who blends striking volume with submission threats; he averages 2.63 strikes landed per minute with 53% accuracy while maintaining 1.2 submission attempts per 15 minutes, showcasing his ground-fighting acumen.
Defensively, Figueiredo absorbs 3.47 strikes per minute while defending 49% of incoming strikes and stuffing 57% of takedown attempts, reflecting a fighter comfortable in exchanges but occasionally caught in volume-trading scenarios. His recent resume shows mixed results: he secured split-decision victories over Jarred Brooks (October 2017) and Montel Jackson (October 2025), bookended by notable losses to Petr Yan via unanimous decision (November 2024) and Cory Sandhagen via second-round knockout (May 2025).
Earlier in his career, Figueiredo demonstrated finishing ability with first-round submissions against Tim Elliott (October 2019) and Alex Perez (June 2021), though he's also suffered defeats to elite competition including Brandon Moreno and Jussier Formiga. Currently navigating a competitive stretch with an even recent record of 4-4 across his last eight fights, Figueiredo remains a technical submission threat in the lower weight classes despite inconsistent results against top-tier opposition.
