Rayanne Dos Santos

Overview

Three UFC fights, three decisions, no finishes in either direction. Rayanne Dos Santos is a Women's Strawweight from Belém, Brazil, and her UFC record is 0-3. Two of those losses were split decisions, so the margins have been thin. The 14-9-0 professional record includes fights outside the UFC, and the promotion's record is the one that counts here.

Every fight she has had in the UFC has gone the distance.

UFC Career

Dos Santos first appeared on Dana White's Contender Series 6.5 in August 2022, where she lost a unanimous decision to Denise Gomes. That fight sits outside the UFC record, but it was her first big-stage test.

Her UFC debut came in December 2023 at UFC Fight Night: Song vs. Gutierrez, a split-decision loss to Talita Alencar. Six months later she dropped another split decision, this time to Puja Tomar at UFC Fight Night: Cannonier vs Imavov. In May 2025 she lost a unanimous decision to Alice Ardelean at UFC Fight Night: Gamrot vs Klein.

She carries a three-fight losing streak into her next fight. All three losses went the full 15 minutes, and none ended early.

Fighting Style

The career numbers describe a fighter who throws a fair amount and defends well, but gives up more than she should. She lands more strikes per minute than most in the UFC and is harder to hit than most. She also absorbs more strikes per minute than the UFC average, and her accuracy is below it. That is a slightly odd mix, and it points to fights that turn into exchanges.

The grappling side is lopsided. She almost never shoots for takedowns and rarely hunts for submissions, but she is very hard to take down. She is a striker who wants to stay on her feet, and so far the opposition has mostly let her.

With no finishes and no knockdown-ending sequences in her UFC run, the picture is of a fighter who competes for the full fight and lets the judges decide.
