Win Methods
Gabriel Bonfim, better known as "Marretinha", holds the #5 spot at welterweight, flying the flag for Brazil — and rankings that high aren't given away, they're taken.
The game is built on grappling: 2.6 takedowns per 15 minutes, and opponents spend rounds defending instead of fighting. 13 submission wins say what happens when the defense slips.
He arrives on a 5-fight win streak — most recently Belal Muhammad, Decision - Unanimous. Streaks like that don't stay unnoticed for long.
