ALLAN NASCIMENTO

Hailing from Brazil, Allan Nascimento developed his skills as a flyweight competitor while training at the Chute Boxe Academy. His professional career saw him gain extensive experience across international circuits and the regional scene before he eventually earned a spot on the main roster of the UFC in 2021. Throughout his tenure, he built a reputation as a dangerous grappler capable of securing finishes through various choke maneuvers.

Heading into this February 2026 event, Nascimento carries a career record of 22-6-0. His recent performances demonstrate significant momentum, beginning with a split-decision loss to Tagir Ulanbekov in late 2021. Since that setback, he has put together a four-fight winning streak, earning consecutive decision victories over Jake Hadley and Jafel Filho, followed by submission triumphs against Carlos Hernandez and Cody Durden.
