Profile
Overview Two UFC fights, two first-round submission losses, and the second one ended in 1:26.
Julien Leblanc is a Canadian middleweight out of Ottawa who fights southpaw. He is 0-2 in the UFC and 10-4-0 as a professional across all promotions. That's a small sample, but the pattern in it is hard to miss: both defeats came on the mat, both before the first round was out.
UFC Career Leblanc's UFC debut came on the Burns vs Malott card in April 2026, where Robert Valentin submitted him in the first round at 2:22. Six months later, on the Buckley vs. Malott card, Nick Galanti did the same thing faster, finishing him at 1:26 of round one.
Neither fight saw the second round. He carries a two-fight losing streak into his next outing.
Fighting Style The career numbers split in an odd way. Leblanc lands far fewer strikes per minute than the UFC average, but he absorbs far fewer too, and his accuracy is well above average. Selective and efficient, not busy.
The problem is on the ground. He rarely shoots for takedowns, defends them much worse than most, and attempts very few submissions himself. Both losses came by submission, and the numbers explain why.
