Hailing from Houston, Texas, American bantamweight Adrian Yañez trains out of Metro Fight Club. An orthodox competitor, Yañez began learning boxing and Brazilian jiu-jitsu as a youth before turning professional in 2014. Noted for his striking and resilience, he has developed a reputation for knockout power. His notable triumphs include victories over Davey Grant and Tony Kelley.
Prior to UFC 300, Yañez carries an 11-4-0 record. His recent stretch began with three consecutive victories, stopping Randy Costa and Tony Kelley with strikes, and earning a split decision over Davey Grant. However, he enters the April 2024 event looking to break a two-fight losing streak, having suffered back-to-back TKO defeats against Rob Font and Jonathan Martinez.
