En 2021, il d\u00e9butait en MMA. Il aura fallu exactement 33 secondes pour qu&rsquo;il d\u00e9croche son ticket UFC \u2014 le temps qu&rsquo;il lui a fallu pour mettre KO son compatriote Toshiomi Kazama en finale du Road to UFC Season 1, en f\u00e9vrier 2023 \u00e0 Las Vegas. Pour un type venu de la lutte, \u00e7a envoie un message assez clair.<\/p>\n<h3>De la lutte olympique \u00e0 l&rsquo;octogone<\/h3>\n<p>N\u00e9 le 23 mars 1995 \u00e0 Saitama, Nakamura a grandi en regardant les galas PRIDE \u00e0 la t\u00e9l\u00e9. Il a pass\u00e9 sa jeunesse \u00e0 viser les Jeux Olympiques de Tokyo, mais la pand\u00e9mie de COVID-19 a tout d\u00e9cal\u00e9. En 2020, \u00e0 25 ans, il tourne la page et se lance dans le MMA. Ses d\u00e9buts sont imm\u00e9diats : KO en 42 secondes lors de son premier combat, en mai 2021. Il encha\u00eene cinq victoires avant m\u00eame que le Road to UFC ne commence.<\/p>\n<p>Le tournoi Road to UFC Season 1 est son vrai bapt\u00eame du feu face \u00e0 la sc\u00e8ne asiatique. Il soumet Gugun Gusman \u00e0 la cl\u00e9 de bras en juin 2022 \u00e0 Singapour (1re reprise, 3:24), \u00e9teint Shohei Nose \u00e0 coups de poings en octobre 2022 \u00e0 Abu Dhabi (1re reprise, 2:21), puis efface Kazama en 33 secondes en finale. Bonus de la soir\u00e9e logiquement au rendez-vous.<\/p>\n<h3>Style de combat : lutte + finition debout<\/h3>\n<p>Le surnom \u00ab\u00a0Hybrid\u00a0\u00bb dit tout. Nakamura s&rsquo;appuie sur ses bases de lutteur de haut niveau \u2014 takedowns, contr\u00f4le, dict\u00e9e du rythme \u2014 mais il finit ses combats debout. Six victoires par KO sur dix, dont plusieurs d\u00e8s la premi\u00e8re reprise. Son technique pr\u00e9f\u00e9r\u00e9e au sol ? Le Von Flue choke, ce qui en dit long sur le niveau de ses positions debout. Ce n&rsquo;est pas un lutteur qui attend le point ; c&rsquo;est un lutteur qui cherche l&rsquo;ouverture pour finir.<\/p>\n<h3>Parcours \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC<\/h3>\n<p>Ses deux premiers combats \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC ont affin\u00e9 son dossier : victoire aux points contre Fernie Garcia en ao\u00fbt 2023 \u00e0 Singapour, puis contre Carlos Vera en f\u00e9vrier 2024 \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC 298 d&rsquo;Anaheim. Deux d\u00e9cisions unanimes solides, sans \u00e9clat, qui le placent dans le Top 15 coq.<\/p>\n<p>Sa premi\u00e8re d\u00e9faite arrive \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC 311 le 18 janvier 2025, face \u00e0 Muin Gafurov \u2014 d\u00e9cision unanime, trois rounds. Un revers qui coupe une s\u00e9rie de neuf victoires. La r\u00e9ponse est rapide : six mois plus tard, le 2 ao\u00fbt 2025, il r\u00e8gle Nathan Fletcher par TKO sur coup de pied au corps \u00e0 1:02 de la premi\u00e8re reprise. Record actuel : 10 victoires, 1 d\u00e9faite.<\/p>\n<p>\u00c0 31 ans, entra\u00een\u00e9 depuis 2025 \u00e0 l&rsquo;American Top Team, Nakamura s&rsquo;installe comme un candidat s\u00e9rieux dans un coq UFC hyper concurrentiel. La base de lutte est l\u00e0. Les frappes suivent. Et il finit ses combats.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sources-article\"><strong>Sources :<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Rinya_Nakamura\">Wikipedia<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ufc.com\/athlete\/rinya-nakamura\">UFC.com<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ufc.com\/news\/rinya-nakamura-it-is-my-destiny-ufc-311\">UFC.com \u2014 interview Nakamura<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rinya \u00ab\u00a0Hybrid\u00a0\u00bb Nakamura, lutteur U23 champion du monde 2017, est pass\u00e9 au MMA en 2021 et a remport\u00e9 le Road to UFC en 33 secondes.
