Tuco Tokkos, le mi-lourd londonien pass\u00e9 par l’UFC<\/h2>\n

D’o\u00f9 il sort<\/h3>\n

De son vrai nom George Tokkos, \u00ab\u00a0Tuco\u00a0\u00bb est n\u00e9 le 30 juin 1990 \u00e0 Camden, dans le nord de Londres, d’une m\u00e8re br\u00e9silienne et d’un p\u00e8re chypriote grec. Ce m\u00e9lange colle bien \u00e0 son profil de combattant : un gabarit de mi-lourd (1,93 m, 1,93 m d’allonge) construit autour du jiu-jitsu br\u00e9silien, qu’il pratique depuis la fin des ann\u00e9es 2010. Il s’entra\u00eene aux \u00c9tats-Unis, \u00e0 la Kill Cliff FC de Deerfield Beach (Floride), sous la houlette de Henri Hooft, l’un des coachs de frappe les plus r\u00e9put\u00e9s du circuit.<\/p>\n

Le parcours<\/h3>\n

Avant l’UFC, Tokkos s’est fait un nom sur les circuits am\u00e9ricains, notamment en d\u00e9crochant la ceinture des mi-lourds \u00e0 la Fury FC. C’est d’ailleurs sur cette organisation qu’il signe une de ses victoires exp\u00e9ditives : un succ\u00e8s sur Myron Dennis en \u00e0 peine 1 minute 29 au premier round, le 23 f\u00e9vrier 2024, qui lui ouvre les portes de la grande ligue. Son palmar\u00e8s professionnel s’\u00e9tablit \u00e0 11 victoires pour 6 d\u00e9faites, avec une nette majorit\u00e9 de finitions : la moiti\u00e9 de ses victoires arrivent par KO, le reste se partageant entre soumissions et d\u00e9cisions.<\/p>\n

Son style<\/h3>\n

Tokkos, c’est un puncheur sur base de grappling. L’allonge lui sert \u00e0 tenir l’adversaire \u00e0 distance et \u00e0 placer ses mains, mais sa ceinture en jiu-jitsu lui donne une vraie menace au sol et au clinch, comme on l’a vu avec ses \u00e9tranglements bras-t\u00eate. Le souci, \u00e0 l’UFC, c’est qu’il a parfois manqu\u00e9 de marge face \u00e0 des sp\u00e9cialistes : sa premi\u00e8re sortie l’a montr\u00e9 pris au pi\u00e8ge au sol.<\/p>\n

Ses combats \u00e0 l’UFC<\/h3>\n

Il fait ses d\u00e9buts UFC le 18 mai 2024 contre Oumar Sy et tombe sur plus fort au sol : \u00e9tranglement arri\u00e8re, d\u00e9faite au premier round. Le 14 d\u00e9cembre 2024, il s’incline aux points face au prospect n\u00e9o-z\u00e9landais Navajo Stirling. Sa grande satisfaction arrive le 12 juillet 2025 : il soumet Junior Tafa par arm-triangle au deuxi\u00e8me round, sa seule victoire dans l’octogone. Son dernier combat, le 16 mai 2026, se solde par une d\u00e9faite aux points contre Ivan Erslan.<\/p>\n

O\u00f9 il en est<\/h3>\n

Apr\u00e8s cette derni\u00e8re d\u00e9faite, Tokkos a \u00e9t\u00e9 retir\u00e9 du roster de l’UFC le 22 mai 2026. \u00c0 35 ans, le mi-lourd londonien doit d\u00e9sormais se reconstruire sur les circuits r\u00e9gionaux s’il veut retrouver un jour le plus haut niveau. Le potentiel athl\u00e9tique est l\u00e0 ; reste \u00e0 transformer l’essai sur la dur\u00e9e.<\/p>\n
