Fabricio Andrey just scored a huge decision win over Joao Mendes at ONE Fight Night 40 on February 13th, 2026. It seems like Andrey is fitting in very well at the promotion, as he is now 3-0 under the ONE Championship banner. He was already one of their top featherweights coming into this match with Mendes but now he’s made a title-shot virtually undeniable. He won a decision over Ashley Williams in his debut less than a year ago and although he was busy elsewhere for a few months after that, he returned with another decision win over Eduardo Granzotto at ONE Fight Night 36.
Andrey came out aggressively right from the start and once he got in on Mendes’ legs, it looked like the match might be over. Andrey entered the saddle and controlled the far leg too, cranking on a Z-lock that might have even caused some damage. Mendes didn’t tap though and Andrey switched to a heel hook on the near leg, putting a ton of pressure on it but failing to get the tap yet again. That was enough to earn him the decision win though and as the match wound down, Andrey leapt on a guillotine that looked fairly tight and sealed the victory even though Mendes escaped yet again.
