Luis Ramos (born January 18, 1981) is a Brazilian mixed martial artist who formerly fought as a welterweight in the Ultimate Fighting Championship.

MMA career

Shooto

Ramos compiled an undefeated record in Shooto and won his first title against Igor Fernandes in 2009. One year later he won the main Shooto Middleweight (168 lb) title.

Ramos later vacated his title to compete in the Ultimate Fighting Championship.[1]

Ultimate Fighting Championship

Ramos made his UFC debut replacing the injured Mike Swick against Erick Silva on August 27, 2011 at UFC 134: Silva vs. Okami.[2] He lost the bout via TKO in the first round.

Ramos was expected to face Matthew Riddle on December 30, 2011 at UFC 141: Lesnar vs. Overeem. However, the fight was called off as Riddle became ill and had to pull out just moments before the fight took place.[3]

Ramos/Riddle was expected to finally take place on June 22, 2012 at UFC on FX 4: Maynard vs. Guida. However, Riddle was forced out of the bout due to injury and was replaced by Matt Brown.[4] Ramos lost via TKO in the second round and was subsequently released from the promotion.[5]

Road Fighting Championship

Ramos made his debut on April 13, 2013 at Road FC 11 against Jung Hwan Cha. The bout ended in a draw.[6]
