Mixed martial arts record from Sherdog |
Rony Mariano Bezerra is a Brazilian professional mixed martial artist who competes in the featherweight division. A professional MMA competitor since 2006, Rony has made a name for himself fighting all over his home country of Brazil. He is currently signed with the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), and was the featherweight winner of Globo's The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil.
MMA career
Rony began training in martial arts at sixteen years old because he was a self-proclaimed "brat" and he had a love for martial arts.[1] Rony trained for several years before taking his first fight in 2006, where he fought Alessandro Cabeca in his professional debut, winning via second round TKO.[2]
At only 2-0, Rony took a fight against another up-and-comer, and future World Extreme Cagefighting and Ultimate Fighting Championships star, Renan Barão. The fight was very closely contested and ended in a split decision loss for Rony.[2] He won his next fight via submission before suffering his second loss to Joao Paulo Rodrigues de Souza. Rony bounced back from the loss with first round submission wins over future UFC fighter, Felipe Arantes and tough journeyman, Felipe Alves.[2]
On December 5, 2009 at the Platinum Fight Brazil 2 fight card, Rony fought future Bellator competitor, Genair da Silva. Rony lost the fight via doctor stoppage after the end of round two.[2] After the loss Rony went on a five fight winning streak, where he claimed multiple titles for several promotions,[1] and was named BloodyElbow.com's 2012 #1 Bantamweight prospect, despite never fighting in the division.[3]
The Ultimate Fighter
In March 2012, it was revealed that Rony was selected to be a participant on The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil. Rony defeated Dileno Lopes via technical knockout in the first round to move into the Ultimate Fighter house, and become an official cast member.
Rony was selected as the first overall pick by Wanderlei Silva, to be a part of Team Wanderlei. In the last quarterfinal fight, Rony was selected to fight his close friend and training partner Anistavio Gasparzinho. Rony won the fight via technical submission after applying an armbar to Gasparzinho, nearly breaking his arm which forced the referee to intervene and stop the fight.
In the semi-final round Rony was matched-up against Hugo Wolverine from Team Vitor. After three rounds Rony was declared the winner via unanimous decision. The win moved him into the finals set to take place at UFC 147.
Ultimate Fighting Championship
Rony officially made his UFC debut at UFC 147 on June 23, 2012 against Godofredo Pepey to determine the featherweight winner of The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil. He won the fight via unanimous decision.
