Kaue Fernandes is 3-1 in the UFC. All four of his fights on record came at lightweight.
He lost his debut on Nov. 4, 2023, dropping a split decision to Marc Diakiese.
Three wins have followed. Fernandes knocked out Mohammad Yahya in the first round on Aug. 3, 2024, beat Guram Kutateladze by unanimous decision over three rounds on March 22, 2025, and knocked out Harry Hardwick in the first round on Sept. 6, 2025.
His last bout on record is the Hardwick win. Two of his three UFC wins are first-round finishes, and the split decision against Diakiese is the only fight in his file he has lost.
