Profile

Overview

One UFC win, and it took 81 seconds. Noah Gugnon, a French lightweight from Spicheren who trains with Bulgarian Top Team, is 1-1 in the UFC and 10-3-0 as a professional across all promotions. The win was a first-round submission. The loss, a first-round TKO, came in his next fight.

Quick starts in both directions.

UFC Career

Gugnon debuted at UFC Fight Night: Medic vs. Rodriguez and submitted Milos Janicic in the first round at 1:21. It's his only UFC win and his only finish, which makes for a thin sample, but a clean one.

His second fight came at UFC 333: Volkanovski vs. Evloev against Kody Steele. It ended by KO/TKO in round one at 3:54, and he carries a one-fight losing streak into his next bout.

Two fights, both done inside a round.

Fighting Style

Noah Gugnon is a busy striker who lands often and lands accurately. He's hard to hit cleanly, though he still absorbs more strikes than most fighters.

He rarely shoots for takedowns himself, but he's tough to take down when opponents try. That keeps most of his fights standing.

Don't file him as a pure striker. He hunts for submissions at a rate well above the UFC average, and his one UFC win was a first-round submission.
