Felipe Lima emerged in 2026 as one of the UFC’s rising Brazilian prospects, built on a well-rounded style and a record marked by finishes. Having gone from small Amazonian gyms to Scandinavian cages before joining the UFC, he confirmed his progress by beating Morgan Charrière in Paris.
Born on May 7, 1998, in Coari, in the state of Amazonas, Brazil, Felipe Lima began his professional career in August 2015 at flyweight in Manaus, where he lost by submission to Ivan Luiz. He bounced back in his very next fight and put together a string of wins in regional promotions across the Amazon region, such as Amazon Talent, Arena Fight Championship, and Rei da Selva Combat, gradually moving up to bantamweight.
He won Amazon Talent’s vacant bantamweight title in December 2018, then crossed the Atlantic to continue his career in Europe. He first passed through Portugal and Sweden, picking up wins at Mr. Cage and Brave CF in 2019 and 2020, before settling long term at Allstars Training Center in Sweden. Fighting under its banner, he won Fight Club Rush’s inaugural bantamweight title in November 2021 by flying knee knockout, then Oktagon MMA’s title in July 2023 against Jonas Mågård in Prague.
Felipe Lima joined the UFC in 2024 and made his debut on June 22 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where he submitted Muhammad Naimov by rear naked choke in the third round, a performance that earned him Performance of the Night honors. He followed it with a decision win over Miles Johns in December 2024 in Tampa.
In June 2025, he suffered his first loss under the UFC banner, beaten on the scorecards by Payton Talbott in Las Vegas. He then moved up a division to featherweight to face Morgan Charrière on September 5, 2026, at UFC Paris. He won by unanimous decision, on scorecards of 30-27, 30-27, and 29-28, handing the Frenchman a clear defeat in front of his home crowd.
Felipe Lima shows a well-rounded profile, capable of finishing fights both standing and on the ground. Across seventeen professional fights, he has four wins by knockout or technical knockout and three by submission, against eight decision wins, a balance that reflects a broad technical base rather than a single weapon. His rear naked choke win over Muhammad Naimov, in his very first UFC fight, points to solid grappling, while his title won by flying knee knockout at Fight Club Rush shows finishing ability on the feet. His time at Allstars Training Center in Sweden sharpened his boxing and distance management, qualities on display in his decision win over Morgan Charrière, where he favored controlling the pace over chasing the finish.
