Profile

Overview Kevin Christian is a 6'7" Light Heavyweight from Rio Preto da Eva, Brazil, and his UFC run has been short: two fights, both over in the first round. He is 0-2 in the UFC and 9-4-0 as a professional across all promotions, and he carries a two-fight losing streak into his next fight.

UFC Career Christian's route to the UFC ran through Dana White's Contender Series 8.7, where he submitted Francesco Mazzeo in Round 2 at 4:17. That fight isn't part of his UFC record.

His UFC debut came at UFC Fight Night: Garcia vs Onama, where Billy Elekana submitted him in Round 1 at 3:33. At UFC Fight Night: Della Maddalena vs Prates, Junior Tafa stopped him by KO/TKO in Round 1 at 2:42.

Two fights, two first-round losses. It's a small sample, and the data stops there.

Fighting Style

Kevin Christian is a selective striker. He doesn't throw a high volume, but he lands a good share of what he does throw. His defense is a weak spot, and he gets hit more often than most fighters do.

He rarely shoots for takedowns, yet he hunts for submissions more than most, so his grappling offense tends to come from scrambles rather than wrestling.

Both of his UFC losses came by finish, one by KO/TKO and one by submission.
