ANDRE FILI

Hailing from an American background with Samoan and Native Hawaiian roots, Andre Fili developed his craft within the Team Alpha Male gym. He entered the professional ranks in 2009 and transitioned to the UFC four years later, immediately securing a technical knockout victory during his promotional debut. Throughout his long tenure in the featherweight division, the versatile fighter has maintained a consistent pace, engaging notable combatants such as Yair Rodriguez and Max Holloway while collecting several performance-based bonuses along the way.

Entering the September 2023 event, Fili held an overall professional record of twenty-two victories, ten defeats, and one no-contest. His recent performance history featured a unanimous decision setback against Nathaniel Wood in July 2023. Prior to that, he earned a split decision win over Bill Algeo, followed by a stoppage loss to Joanderson Brito, an accidental no-contest with Daniel Pineda, and a unanimous decision defeat against Bryce Mitchell.
