Gabriel Bonfim
Career overview
Gabriel Bonfim, fighting out of an orthodox stance at 6'1" and 170 pounds, carries a professional record of 19-1-0 with recent form of 7-1 across his last eight UFC outings. The Brazilian welterweight operates as a well-rounded mixed martial artist with clear grappling inclinations, averaging 3.60 takedowns per 15 minutes at 55% accuracy while maintaining solid 76% takedown defense.
Bonfim lands 4.61 strikes per minute with 46% accuracy and absorbs 3.68 per minute while defending 63% of incoming strikes, but his submission threat remains his most lethal weapon—averaging 1.4 submission attempts per 15 minutes. His recent résumé underscores his finishing ability: he submitted Khaos Williams in round two (February 2025), earned a split-decision victory over Stephen Thompson (July 2025), and most recently knocked out Randy Brown in the second round (November 2025).
His sole recent setback came via second-round KO/TKO loss to Nicolas Dalby in November 2023. Bonfim's submission prowess and grappling base make him a dangerous mid-tier welterweight threat, though his striking volume and accuracy suggest continued development as a complete fighter.
