Vicente Luque Bio

Vicente Luque is an active UFC middleweight known as “The Silent Assassin.” The UFC lists him as born in Westwood, United States, while its earlier reporting says he was raised in Brasília, Brazil, after moving there as a child. Luque began karate at age three through his mother, later gravitated to Muay Thai as a teenager, and turned professional in mixed martial arts in 2009. The UFC lists his height at 5 feet 11 inches and identifies Muay Thai as his fighting style.

Luque emerged on The Ultimate Fighter: American Top Team vs. Blackzilians and made his Octagon debut against Michael Graves in July 2015. His UFC résumé includes notable finishes of former champions Tyron Woodley and Rafael dos Anjos, and he has built a reputation for pressure striking, knees, and opportunistic front-headlock submissions such as the D’Arce and anaconda choke. After competing for years at welterweight, Luque moved to middleweight in 2026; he submitted Kelvin Gastelum in April before a unanimous-decision loss to Tresean Gore on August 15, 2026. UFC’s current athlete page continues to list him as active at middleweight.
