Modestino 'The Slenderman' Rodrigues is a Brazilian middleweight out of Fonte Boa, Amazonas, with a jiu-jitsu base who prefers to press the action on the feet. All eight of his professional wins have come by knockout, including a controversial 15-second stoppage of Brandon Holmes on Dana White's Contender Series Week 4 that earned him a UFC contract on September 1, 2026. His only loss came by TKO in a previous Contender Series appearance against Cam Rowston.
