Quand il a remport\u00e9 le tournoi poids coqs de The Ultimate Fighter saison 29 le 28 ao\u00fbt 2021, il a saut\u00e9 partout dans l&rsquo;Apex en agitant les drapeaux des Philippines et du Salvador. N\u00e9 le 5 juillet 1993 \u00e0 Houston d&rsquo;une m\u00e8re philippine et d&rsquo;un p\u00e8re salvadorien, il revendique ses deux origines \u00e0 chaque sortie. Sur le papier c&rsquo;est un combattant freestyle ; dans la cage c&rsquo;est un moulin \u00e0 frappes qui ne s&rsquo;arr\u00eate jamais d&rsquo;avancer.<\/p>\n<h3>Le parcours : du taekwondo au contrat UFC<\/h3>\n<p>Avant le MMA, Turcios a b\u00e2ti des bases martiales solides : ceinture noire de taekwondo et ceinture noire de Jiu-Jitsu br\u00e9silien, plus un passage par le Muay Tha\u00ef o\u00f9 il a d\u00e9croch\u00e9 deux titres IKF World Classic en amateur. Pass\u00e9 pro en 2013, il s&rsquo;est forg\u00e9 un palmar\u00e8s r\u00e9gional dans le Texas, notamment via la promotion Legacy\/Fury FC. C&rsquo;est The Ultimate Fighter 29, dans l&rsquo;\u00e9quipe d&rsquo;Alexander Volkanovski, qui lui ouvre les portes de l&rsquo;UFC : en finale, il bat Brady Hiestand par d\u00e9cision partag\u00e9e (29-28, 28-29, 29-28) au terme d&rsquo;une guerre o\u00f9 il encaisse les takedowns mais inonde Hiestand de coups, allant jusqu&rsquo;\u00e0 le secouer d&rsquo;une grosse droite au dernier round.<\/p>\n<h3>Le style : volume, rythme et cardio<\/h3>\n<p>Turcios mesure 1,75 m pour 1,80 m d&rsquo;allonge, des mensurations modestes chez les coqs. Sa r\u00e9ponse, c&rsquo;est le rythme : il pousse l&rsquo;allure, multiplie les frappes en cascade et compte sur son cardio pour noyer l&rsquo;adversaire. Sur ses trois victoires par KO et sa ceinture noire au sol, il a de quoi finir un combat, mais sa vraie arme reste l&rsquo;accumulation et la pression constante. Le revers de la m\u00e9daille : face aux gros lutteurs, il se fait souvent emmener au sol.<\/p>\n<h3>Combats notables<\/h3>\n<p>Le retour de manivelle est venu vite apr\u00e8s le sacre TUF. Le 9 juillet 2022, Aiemann Zahabi le bat aux points (d\u00e9cision unanime). Le 8 juin 2024 \u00e0 UFC Louisville, c&rsquo;est le prodige Raul Rosas Jr., alors \u00e2g\u00e9 de 19 ans, qui le soumet par \u00e9tranglement arri\u00e8re au 2e round. Et le 8 mars 2026 \u00e0 UFC 326, Alberto Montes le passe par un anaconda choke \u00e0 40 secondes du 2e round. Un coup de moins bien pour Pretty Ricky, qui doit relancer la machine.<\/p>\n<h3>Statut actuel<\/h3>\n<p>Toujours sous contrat chez les poids coqs de l&rsquo;UFC, Turcios affiche un bilan que les bases de donn\u00e9es situent autour de 13-5 (l&rsquo;UFC le cr\u00e9dite de 13-5, d&rsquo;autres trackers de 13-6). Apr\u00e8s plusieurs revers, le combattant de Houston joue gros pour rester dans la division la plus dense du sport. Une chose est s\u00fbre : qui qu&rsquo;il affronte, il viendra avec la m\u00eame intensit\u00e9.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sources-article\"><strong>Sources :<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ufc.com\/athlete\/ricky-turcios\">UFC.com<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sherdog.com\/fighter\/Ricky-Turcios-80671\">Sherdog<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tapology.com\/fightcenter\/fighters\/46586-ricky-turcios\">Tapology<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ricky \u00ab\u00a0Pretty\u00a0\u00bb Turcios, poids coq UFC n\u00e9 \u00e0 Houston, vainqueur de The Ultimate Fighter 29 : parcours, style tout en volume et combats cl\u00e9s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":102759,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"fighter_category":[69975],"fighter_tag":[],"class_list":["post-104459","fighter_profile","type-fighter_profile","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","fighter_category-featherweight"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.3 -
