Talita Alencar vs Ariane Carnelossi Full Fight – UFC Fight Night 263

Talita Alencar defeated Ariane Carnelossi by submission (rear-naked choke) at 4:36 of Round 3 at UFC Fight Night: Garcia vs. Onama (also known as UFC Vegas 110) on November 1, 2025, at the Meta Apex in Las Vegas.

• The Matchup: The bout served as a classic grappler-versus-striker matchup. Alencar, a multiple-time IBJJF Jiu-Jitsu world champion, looked to secure her first submission in the UFC, while Carnelossi relied on her powerful Muay Thai striking.

• Early Action: Carnelossi tried to press forward aggressively in the opening frames. Alencar countered with kicks and explosive forward entries to initiate grappling exchanges against the cage. 
• The Ground Battle: Despite battling noticeable fatigue and cardio issues as the fight progressed, Alencar consistently found answers on the ground. In the final round, Alencar caught a kick from Carnelossi, dumping her onto her back.
• The Finish: After transitioning from a north-south position into side control, Alencar expertly took Carnelossi’s back. She locked in a body triangle and forced Carnelossi to tap out to a tight rear-naked choke with less than 30 seconds left on the clock. 

The victory marked the first submission win in the UFC for Alencar, extending her momentum in the strawweight division. Conversely, Carnelossi struggled with takedown defense in her return after a long layoff and was later released from the promotion after a subsequent loss in 2026.
