Lance Gibson Jr Bio

Lance Gibson Jr. is an active UFC lightweight who trains at Gibson MMA and competes under the nickname “Fearless.” Born in Seattle on February 2, 1995, he began training in martial arts at an early age and later wrestled collegiately at Arizona State University. His path into professional MMA was shaped by his family: his father, Lance Gibson Sr., competed in the UFC, while Julia Budd helped inspire his development as a fighter.

Gibson Jr. made his UFC debut on December 13, 2025, accepting a short-notice bout with King Green. He followed that appearance with a first-round stoppage of Chase Hooper on March 28, 2026, in Seattle. That victory made Gibson Jr. and his father the first father-son combination to each earn UFC victories. His background in wrestling and long experience in striking and mixed martial arts contribute to a versatile, pressure-oriented style built around close-range attacks, knees and elbows.
