Gilbert Urbina
Career overview
Gilbert Urbina, fighting out of the United States with a 7-5-0 professional record, is an orthodox-stance middleweight standing 6'3" with a 75-inch reach. The 28-year-old operates as a volume striker averaging 5.57 strikes landed per minute with 56% striking accuracy, though his defensive prowess remains a concern at 44% strike defense.
Urbina lands 2.86 takedowns per 15 minutes at 44% accuracy but shows zero takedown defense, indicating vulnerability when opponents control the clinch and mat. His submission average of 0.7 per 15 minutes and KO score of 25.1 suggest moderate finishing capability, though inconsistency has plagued his recent run.
In his last four fights, Urbina posted a 1-3 record: he scored a second-round TKO over Orion Cosce in May 2023, but suffered first-round KO losses to Charles Radtke (February 2024) and Uros Medic (August 2025), with an earlier submission loss to Bryan Battle in 2021. His low cardio score of 8.0 raises questions about conditioning in extended exchanges, a liability given his reliance on volume striking.
Urbina needs a significant course correction to stabilize his middleweight standing.
