Japanese bantamweight competitor Jean Matsumoto fights out of Alliance MMA. Fighting from an orthodox stance, he employs an adaptable approach that balances striking with a highly-regarded ground game. This versatility has helped him secure significant wins over high-level contenders in his division.
Entering UFC Fight Night: du Plessis vs. Usman with a 5-3-0 record, Matsumoto has experienced a mixed run of recent results. He followed a submission loss against Robert Johnson with consecutive victories, defeating Jake Mitchell by split decision and submitting Dylan Hughes with a rear-naked choke. Although he subsequently suffered a TKO loss to Luis Silva, Matsumoto enters his July 18, 2026 matchup fresh off a unanimous decision win over Tommy Edwards.
