Jose "Kalzifer" Ochoa is a 25-year-old Peruvian southpaw who trains with the famed Chute Boxe Diego Lima team in Brazil, home of Charles Oliveira. Seven of his nine wins have come by knockout, including an 11-second blitz of veteran Cody Durden in 2025 that turned heads across the flyweight division. His record also includes one no contest from early in his career. Coming off a dominant decision over Clayton Carpenter in May, he is looking to crack the rankings conversation by beating the division's toughest gatekeeper.
