Manolo Zecchini

Overview Two UFC fights, two first-round stoppages, both inside four minutes. Manolo Zecchini, "Angelo Veneziano," is an Italian featherweight with an 11-5-0 professional record across all promotions and an 0-2 mark in the UFC.

The short UFC run is the whole story so far. Small sample, but no wins on the board yet.

UFC Career Zecchini debuted on September 1, 2023, at UFC Fight Night: Gane vs. Spivac, and lost to Morgan Charriere by KO/TKO at 3:51 of the first round. His second UFC appearance came at UFC Fight Night: Moicano vs Duncan on April 4, 2026. Tommy McMillen beat him by KO/TKO at 3:57 of round one.

He carries a two-fight losing streak into his next fight. Both losses ended by stoppage.

Fighting Style

Zecchini is a striker who gets hit more than most. He throws at a pace close to the UFC average, but he absorbs a lot of strikes and doesn't land efficiently, and his defense leaves him open to being hit.

His grappling offers little to fall back on. He rarely shoots for takedowns, rarely hunts for submissions, and gets taken down more than most.

That mix matches his UFC results. Both of his losses came by KO or TKO, and he has not yet picked up a UFC win.
