Thiago Moises Bio

Thiago Moisés is a Brazilian mixed martial artist from Indaiatuba, Brazil, who competes at lightweight. He was born on March 23, 1995, stands 5 feet 9 inches tall, and began training Brazilian jiu-jitsu as a child with his father, a professional MMA fighter. Moisés developed into a submission-focused fighter and holds a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt. His listed reach is 70.5 inches.

Moisés won the RFA lightweight championship before joining the UFC. He made his UFC debut on November 10, 2018, and built his UFC career through a combination of positional grappling, takedowns, leg attacks and opportunistic submissions. His UFC highlights included submission victories over Michael Johnson, Christos Giagos and Melquizael Costa, as well as a decision win over Alexander Hernandez. He also faced Islam Makhachev in July 2021, losing by rear-naked choke.

Moisés last appeared for the UFC on April 18, 2026, when he lost a split decision to Gauge Young. On June 18, 2026, MMA Fighting reported that he had been removed from the UFC roster, so he should be described as a former UFC lightweight rather than a currently contracted UFC fighter. The UFC profile lists The Fighting Nerds as his training team, while older records identify American Top Team as a longtime affiliation.
