Wellington Turman is an orthodox-stance UFC fighter with nine recorded UFC bouts in the Fight Detective snapshot. He is listed at 182.88 cm in height with an 182.88 cm reach, and a date of birth of 1996-07-22. Across those nine fights, the snapshot totals him at 3 wins and 6 losses, with no draws. His UFC results span Middleweight and Welterweight appearances. The record includes a submission win (over Misha Cirkunov on 2022-02-26) and additional wins that are shown as decision victories in the fight list (over Markus Perez and Sam Alvey). His losses include stoppages (KO/TKO losses to Andrew Sanchez and Bruno Silva) as well as decision setbacks (including to Karl Roberson, Andre Petroski, and Randy Brown) and a submission loss (to Jared Gooden). His most recent listed bout took place on 2023-12-02 at UFC Fight Night: Dariush vs. Tsarukyan. The profile lists him as inactive at the time of the ELO update, and no current UFC ranking is provided in the snapshot.
Turman’s statistical profile suggests a mixed approach with meaningful grappling involvement. He is credited with 1.55 takedowns landed per 15 minutes and 0.8 submissions attempted per 15 minutes, indicators that he looks to incorporate wrestling and submission threats. On the feet, his output is listed at 3.23 significant strikes landed per minute, while he absorbs 4.17 per minute, a differential that points to stretches where opponents have out-landed him. Defensively, the snapshot lists 45% significant strike defense and 42% takedown defense. Taken together, those numbers imply that opponents have been able to find offense both in striking exchanges and in grappling entries, though the snapshot does not provide opponent quality or round-by-round context. Recent form in the fight list shows a three-fight skid from late 2022 through 2023 (two decisions and a submission loss), following a period with back-to-back wins in 2021–2022 (one by split decision and one by submission). Finishing tendencies in the provided UFC results skew toward grappling for his wins (submission present) and include both early stoppage losses (two round-one KO/TKOs) and longer, decision-based outcomes.
