Gabriel 'The Black Mamba' Lorenço is a Brazilian heavyweight who trains at Chute Boxe and has won eight straight since a first-round knockout loss in his pro debut, almost all of them first-round finishes. He stopped Charlie Cleveland in the first round on Dana White's Contender Series in September 2026 to earn his UFC contract, and now makes his promotional debut against veteran wrestler Thomas Petersen in a newly added bout after Alvin Hines was pulled from the original pairing.
