BJJ legend Rodolfo Vieira just showed the world some massive improvements in his fight with Tresean Gore at UFC Vegas 108 on August 2nd, 2025. He looked incredible coming into the UFC back in 2019 with a 5-0 record and all fights ending by finish, but he’s experienced mixed results since then. He’s been able to dominate pretty much anyone on the ground once he gets them there but he’s been outstruck on the feet and his cardio has been his undoing when he’s unable to take his opponents down. He seems to have fixed those problems now though, as he was a much better version of himself tactically against Gore.
Vieira still clearly wanted to take Gore down, but this time he was working his striking a lot more in the ope. and was willing to break away from the clinch to strike. It paid off in a big way too, because Vieira won those striking exchanges with Gore and was able to keep up a fairly high pace without running out of gas. He beat Gore in every area of the fight and was awarded the judge’s decision, marking the first time that he’s gone all three rounds and won. Vieira now holds a 6-3 UFC record and is 11-3 overall, but the great performance gives him the opportunity to ask for an opponent at the bottom of the rankings in his next outing.
