Profile

Overview

Both of Andre Lima's UFC submission wins came in the third round. He gets there late, not early.

"Mascote" is a Flyweight out of Chute Boxe and a Brazilian from the State of Bahia. His UFC record is 5-1, built across six fights, and he carries a one-fight win streak into his next bout. His longest run is four straight. He is 12-1 as a professional across all promotions.

Six fights, and not one has ended in the first round.

UFC Career

Lima fought on Dana White's Contender Series in October 2023, beating Rickson Zenidim by unanimous decision. That fight isn't part of his UFC record. He debuted in March 2024 against Igor Severino and won by disqualification in Round 2 at 2:52.

Mitch Raposo came next at UFC 302, a split decision. Felipe dos Santos followed in September 2024, a unanimous decision. That made three straight wins, and Lima then added a Round 3 submission of Daniel Barez in March 2025 for a fourth.

The streak ended in June 2026 with a unanimous decision loss to Kevin Borjas, his only defeat in the UFC. He answered in August 2026 with a Round 3 submission of Namsrai Batbayar, an opponent our model rates as strong.

One loss, and it went the distance.

Fighting Style

Lima is an accurate, efficient striker who is hard to hit. He lands more than most and absorbs less, and his accuracy is among his best traits.

He rarely shoots for takedowns, but he is tough to take down and hunts for submissions more than most fighters. Both of his UFC finishes are submissions, and both came in Round 3.

His other wins came by decision, plus one that ended another way.
