Brazil’s Deiveson Figueiredo made a successful debut in the bantamweight division after he beat Rob Font during their match in December 2023 at UFC Fight Night: Dariush vs. Tsarukyan via unanimous decision. This officially announced his arrival in the 135-pound division after reigning supreme in the flyweights.
This victory by Figueiredo confirms that he’s still a top name in online sports betting through UFC odds, but when will the former two-time flyweight king be back inside the Octagon?

Figueiredo’s next opponent is former UFC bantamweight champion Cody Garbrandt, and they are scheduled to throw hands on April 13 at UFC 300. This is a crucial match for the Brazilian MMA star as it could determine his fate in the division moving forward. A win could lead to a spot in the top five rankings, while a loss will delay his accent to the top.

But after a successful training camp in the lead-up to his UFC 270 title bout, Deiveson Figueiredo has since moved to Fight Ready Team, which is headlined by former two-division world champion Henry Cejudo alongside other coaches Eddie Cha, Santino Defranco and Angel Cejudo.
