Profile
Overview
Mandel Nallo lost his UFC debut by first-round knockout. His second UFC fight ended in a second-round knockout, and he was the one who landed it.
"Mango" is a Canadian lightweight out of Tristar Gym in Montreal, and his UFC record is 1-1. Both fights ended inside two rounds. It's a small sample, but he doesn't leave much to the judges.
UFC Career
Nallo first appeared on the radar at Dana White's Contender Series, where he stopped Samuel Silva in the first round at 3:29. That was a professional win, not part of his UFC record.
His UFC debut came in April 2026 against Jai Herbert. It lasted 2:05 of the first round, and Nallo took the knockout loss.
He answered in October 2026 against Nate Landwehr, finishing him by KO/TKO at 0:47 of round 2. He now carries a one-fight win streak.
One loss, one win. Both by knockout.
Fighting Style
Mandel Nallo is a busy, accurate striker who is hard to hit cleanly and even harder to take down. He rarely shoots for takedowns himself, preferring to keep the fight standing.
Despite that stand-up focus, he hunts for submissions more than most fighters when the fight does hit the mat. He has no UFC submission wins yet.
His one UFC win came by second-round knockout, and he has finished in the UFC once.
Notable Wins
- Nate Landwehr — KO/TKO, round 2 (0:47), UFC Fight Night: Buckley vs. Malott (2026)
