Edson Barboza carries an 18-14 UFC record into UFC 330, built over 32 promotional fights since his debut on Nov. 20, 2010.
He won twice at featherweight in 2023, stopping Billy Quarantillo by TKO in the first round in April and taking a five-round unanimous decision from Sodiq Yusuff that October.
Three losses have followed. Lerone Murphy beat him by five-round unanimous decision in May 2024. Back at lightweight, Barboza dropped a three-round unanimous decision to Drakkar Klose in August 2025, then was stopped by Jalin Turner by first-round TKO on Dec. 6, 2025.
Fourteen of his 32 UFC appearances have ended in defeat. His time with the promotion now spans more than 15 years, from that 2010 debut to Saturday's card in Philadelphia.
