Le jour, il s&rsquo;entra\u00eenait deux fois. Deux mille kilom\u00e8tres s\u00e9paraient ce Br\u00e9silien de sa famille. Il n&rsquo;y avait pas de raccourci : juste un type de Goi\u00e2nia qui avait d\u00e9cid\u00e9, un jour, que l&rsquo;Octogone serait sa destination.<\/p>\n<p>N\u00e9 le 22 novembre 1992 dans la capitale du Goi\u00e1s, Victor Hugo re\u00e7oit ses premi\u00e8res le\u00e7ons de frappe \u00e0 cinq ans, de la main de son p\u00e8re \u2014 kickboxeur professionnel. Il perfectionne ensuite le jiu-jitsu br\u00e9silien jusqu&rsquo;\u00e0 la ceinture noire, ajoute la lutte, et construit peu \u00e0 peu ce profil hybride que son surnom \u2014 \u00ab\u00a0Striker\u00a0\u00bb \u2014 ne r\u00e9sume qu&rsquo;\u00e0 moiti\u00e9 : les dix soumissions \u00e0 son palmar\u00e8s disent autre chose.<\/p>\n<h3>Du circuit r\u00e9gional \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC<\/h3>\n<p>Sa carri\u00e8re professionnelle d\u00e9marre en 2011. Il passe l&rsquo;essentiel de la d\u00e9cennie suivante sur le circuit br\u00e9silien et asiatique (Pancrase, Aspera FC), accumulant les victoires, dont 12 d\u00e8s le premier round. Entre 2015 et 2024, il encha\u00eene quatorze combats sans d\u00e9faite. En 2022, la mort de son fr\u00e8re le brise mentalement \u2014 il transforme ce deuil en carburant et remporte son combat suivant en 23 secondes.<\/p>\n<p>Le 3 octobre 2023, il se pr\u00e9sente au Dana White&rsquo;s Contender Series (Saison 7, semaine 9) face au Chilien Eduardo Torres \u00ab\u00a0Cyborg\u00a0\u00bb. Au deuxi\u00e8me round, il verrouille un kneebar et force l&rsquo;abandon \u00e0 2:16. Dana White lui signe un contrat sur-le-champ. Hugo dira apr\u00e8s le combat que le kneebar est \u00ab\u00a0vraiment ma sp\u00e9cialit\u00e9\u00a0\u00bb et qu&rsquo;il avait d\u00e9j\u00e0 fini quatre adversaires de cette fa\u00e7on.<\/p>\n<h3>Passage \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC<\/h3>\n<p>Son premier combat sous banni\u00e8re UFC a lieu le 6 avril 2024, \u00e0 Las Vegas, dans l&rsquo;\u00e9v\u00e9nement UFC Fight Night: Allen vs. Curtis 2. Face au Br\u00e9silien Pedro Falc\u00e3o, il s&rsquo;impose par d\u00e9cision unanime sur trois rounds \u2014 victoire solide, sans spectacle, mais qui confirme sa capacit\u00e9 \u00e0 tenir la distance au plus haut niveau.<\/p>\n<p>Le 26 octobre 2024, \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC 308 \u00e0 Abu Dhabi, tout d\u00e9raille \u00e0 la pes\u00e9e : Hugo manque la limite des coqs de 4,7 kg (10,5 lbs), for\u00e7ant le d\u00e9placement du combat en catchweight plume. Il affronte le prospect non battu Farid Basharat, qui encaisse mais tient, contr\u00f4le au sol et l&#8217;emporte par d\u00e9cision unanime (30-27, 29-28, 29-28). Hugo lui fait peur en troisi\u00e8me round avec un uppercut suivi d&rsquo;un back kick tournant qui envoie Basharat au tapis, mais la r\u00e9action est trop tardive. Apr\u00e8s cette d\u00e9faite, l&rsquo;UFC ne renouvelle pas son contrat.<\/p>\n<h3>Style et identit\u00e9<\/h3>\n<p>Le surnom \u00ab\u00a0Striker\u00a0\u00bb vient de sa propre bouche : \u00ab\u00a0Ma principale qualit\u00e9, c&rsquo;est la frappe \u2014 et quand je touche quelqu&rsquo;un, il tombe.\u00a0\u00bb Mais c&rsquo;est au sol que son arsenal est le plus surprenant. Kneebar, heel hook, arm triangle, rear-naked choke : ses dix soumissions couvrent un catalogue impressionnant pour un frappeur autoproclam\u00e9. L&rsquo;Astra Fight Team, bas\u00e9e \u00e0 Balne\u00e1rio Cambori\u00fa (Santa Catarina), lui a donn\u00e9 le cadre pour affiner cette polyvalence.<\/p>\n<h3>Parcours post-UFC<\/h3>\n<p>Lib\u00e9r\u00e9 par l&rsquo;UFC, Victor Hugo continue de tourner \u00e0 l&rsquo;international. En mai 2025 au BRAVE CF 94, il s&rsquo;incline aux points face au Fran\u00e7ais Damien Lapilus. En octobre 2025 \u00e0 l&rsquo;ACA 194, Guram Kutateladze le stoppe au premier round (2:44). Il rebondit en 2026 : victoire par head kick en 11 secondes contre Mitsuhiro Toma (BnD Black Cup, mars), puis soumission par gogoplata face \u00e0 Adilet Nurmatov en 1:48 (mai 2026). \u00c0 33 ans, le Br\u00e9silien de Goi\u00e2nia n&rsquo;a pas rang\u00e9 les gants.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sources-article\"><strong>Sources :<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ufc.com\/athlete\/victor-hugo\">UFC.com<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/thebadgeronline.com\/2024\/05\/in-the-cage-and-beyond-victor-hugos-ufc-journey\/\">The Badger Online<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bravecf.com\/news\/brazilian-veteran-victor-hugo-signs-with-brave-combat-federation\">BRAVE CF<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Victor Hugo \u00ab\u00a0Striker\u00a0\u00bb Silva, combattant MMA br\u00e9silien (plume, n\u00e9 1992, Goi\u00e2nia).
