Mateusz Gamrot entered the octagon at UFC 327 on April 11, 2026, looking to bounce back from a recent loss to Charles Oliveira last October. The fight took place at the Kaseya Center in Miami, where Gamrot faced Esteban Ribovics in a highly anticipated matchup.
In a decisive performance, Gamrot defeated Ribovics via submission in Round 2, executing an arm-triangle choke at 4:19. This victory marked Gamrot’s second finish in his nine UFC victories, bringing his professional record to 26 wins and 4 losses.
After the fight, Gamrot expressed his desire for a higher-profile matchup, calling out Diego Lopes. “Give me someone at the f*cking top. Diego Lopes, I heard he wants to move to lightweight. Let’s go,” he stated emphatically.
Ribovics, on the other hand, saw his record drop to 15 wins and 2 losses following this defeat. Gamrot’s performance not only showcased his skills but also reinforced his position in the lightweight division, where he is currently ranked #8.
Gamrot, a former KSW champion, trains at American Top Team, which has been instrumental in his development as a fighter. He remarked, “Second time I took on a guy out of the rankings, second time I showed I should be in the rankings,” highlighting his determination to climb the competitive ladder.
As the dust settles from UFC 327, observers are keen to see how the lightweight division will respond to Gamrot’s callout of Lopes. With both fighters looking to make a mark, a matchup could be on the horizon.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding the scheduling of Gamrot’s next fight, but his recent performance has undoubtedly put him back in the spotlight.
