Il a termin\u00e9 sa carri\u00e8re Bellator avec la ceinture de champion bantamweight et un ch\u00e8que d&rsquo;un million de dollars en poche. Entre les deux, il y a eu la lutte en high school (premier qualifi\u00e9 aux championnats d&rsquo;\u00c9tat de Lake Shore en 40 ans), onze victoires en amateur, et une ascension discr\u00e8te mais implacable dans les 135 livres.<\/p>\n<h3>L&rsquo;artisan du Grand Prix<\/h3>\n<p>Mix d\u00e9barque chez Bellator en juin 2019 avec une soumission en 1 minute 06 d\u00e8s son premier combat face \u00e0 Ricky Bandejas. Sa progression est m\u00e9thodique : il perd aux points contre Juan Archuleta en septembre 2020 dans un fight pour le titre vacant, puis il revient et encha\u00eene une s\u00e9rie qui va le propulser au sommet. En avril 2022, il bat Kyoji Horiguchi aux points en quart de finale du Grand Prix. En d\u00e9cembre 2022, il \u00e9trangle Magomed Magomedov avec une guillotine en demi-finale. Puis en avril 2023, il exp\u00e9die Raufeon Stots d&rsquo;un step-up knee \u00e0 1:20 du round 1 pour d\u00e9crocher le titre int\u00e9rimaire et le million de dollars du tournoi \u2014 peut-\u00eatre le finish le plus net du bantamweight Bellator de toute la d\u00e9cennie.<\/p>\n<p>La finalisation du titre arrive en novembre 2023 \u00e0 Bellator 301 : Sergio Pettis tient un round, puis Mix l&rsquo;\u00e9touffe en rear-naked choke \u00e0 1:51 du deuxi\u00e8me. Il devient ainsi le dernier champion bantamweight de l&rsquo;histoire Bellator, une promotion qui ferme ses portes peu apr\u00e8s. En mai 2024, il d\u00e9fend sa ceinture contre Magomedov \u2014 le m\u00eame qu&rsquo;il avait \u00e9trangl\u00e9 18 mois plus t\u00f4t \u2014 et l&#8217;emporte cette fois aux points sur d\u00e9cision partag\u00e9e.<\/p>\n<h3>Style : le grappleur qui ne l\u00e2che rien<\/h3>\n<p>Ceinture noire de BJJ, Mix est le recordman de finishs et de soumissions dans l&rsquo;histoire du bantamweight Bellator. Son jeu se construit sur la prise de dos, le contr\u00f4le positionnel et la patience \u2014 il ne cherche pas l&rsquo;arr\u00eat \u00e0 tout prix, il le rend in\u00e9vitable. Sur le pied, il est capable de produire des frappes propres comme ce step-up knee contre Stots, mais c&rsquo;est au sol qu&rsquo;il est v\u00e9ritablement \u00e0 l&rsquo;aise. ESPN l&rsquo;a sacr\u00e9 meilleur combattant non-UFC masculin de l&rsquo;ann\u00e9e 2023, ce qui dit beaucoup sur son niveau dans les 135 livres \u00e0 l&rsquo;\u00e9chelle mondiale \u00e0 cette p\u00e9riode.<\/p>\n<h3>UFC : deux combats, deux d\u00e9faites, une lib\u00e9ration<\/h3>\n<p>Sign\u00e9 \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC en mai 2025, Mix fait ses d\u00e9buts \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC 316 le 7 juin 2025 face \u00e0 Mario Bautista. D\u00e9faite aux points. Il encha\u00eene en octobre 2025 \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC 320 contre le Polonais Jakub Wik\u0142acz : nouvelle d\u00e9faite, sur d\u00e9cision partag\u00e9e cette fois, avec 12 des 17 m\u00e9dias pr\u00e9sents qui le donnaient gagnant. L&rsquo;UFC le lib\u00e8re le 28 janvier 2026. En mars 2026, il part du c\u00f4t\u00e9 du RIZIN en poids plume (cat\u00e9gorie au-dessus) et subit un TKO contre Kyoma Akimoto.<\/p>\n<p>Son bilan actuel est de 24 victoires et 4 d\u00e9faites. Le chapitre UFC a \u00e9t\u00e9 court et d\u00e9cevant au tableau, mais Mix reste l&rsquo;un des meilleurs grappleurs pass\u00e9s par le bantamweight ces derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es \u2014 et \u00e0 32 ans, la suite du parcours reste ouverte.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sources-article\"><strong>Sources :<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Patchy_Mix\">Wikipedia (EN)<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ufc.com\/athlete\/patrick-mix\">UFC.com<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/mma\/story\/_\/id\/47767001\/ufc-releases-former-bellator-champ-patchy-mix-two-fights\">ESPN<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patchy Mix, ex-champion Bellator bantamweight (24-4), recordman de soumissions Bellator, pass\u00e9 bri\u00e8vement \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC en 2025 avant d&rsquo;\u00eatre lib\u00e9r\u00e9 d\u00e9but 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":101342,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"fighter_category":[69974],"fighter_tag":[],"class_list":["post-104761","fighter_profile","type-fighter_profile","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","fighter_category-bantamweight"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.3 -
