Brazilian Flyweight Contender Iago Ribeiro Profile
Iago Ribeiro has spent the majority of his fighting life in Balneario Camboriu on Brazil’s southern coast. A mainstay of Astra Fight Team at 31 years old, Ribeiro offers a compact frame standing five foot two and a relentless forward pace that earned him the nickname PITBULL. Across 16 professional fights he has compiled a 13 win 3 loss record while venturing beyond Brazil to carve out a presence on international cards.
Ribeiro’s willingness to travel has translated into regional rankings that span continents. He is currently rated number 78 in the Middle East & Africa region, a position earned through at least two appearances in that territory out of his last six bouts. In Central & South America he checks in at number 243, and in the Middle East sub region he also holds a spot on the list. In each area he competes at flyweight, having fought at that weight in his two most recent contests.
