Description

Bibiano Fernandes da Silva Neto (born March 30, 1980) is a Brazilian professional mixed martial artist and black belt Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) practitioner. He is currently signed to ONE Championship, where he is a former two-time ONE Bantamweight Champion and holds the record for most title fight wins (11) and is tied for most consecutive title defenses (7). As of March 6, 2023, he is ranked #3 in the ONE Bantamweight rankings.

A five time World jiu-jitsu champion and three time Pan American champion, Fernandes was considered the top light-featherweight of his generation before transitioning to mixed martial arts (MMA). He previously competed for K-1, DREAM, and King of the Cage. Fernandes is also a former DREAM Featherweight Champion and DREAM Bantamweight Champion. He was once ranked as the #5 bantamweight in the world by MMA Weekly.

Fernandes was born in Manaus and grew up in a neighborhood called Coroado with his family. Fernandes played soccer throughout his childhood. Bibiano Fernandes' mother fell ill and eventually passed away when he was seven years old. His father, Inacio, didn't want to raise the children, so Bibiano and his siblings were sent to live with their aunt in the Amazon rainforest, by the Ituxi River. However, Bibiano caught malaria during their stay in the rainforest and his father was alerted to bring him back to Manaus for treatment. After returning to Manaus, Fernandes attended school for the first time in his life at the age of nine.

Fernandes and his wife, Amanda, have three sons: Elijah, Gabriel and Lucas.
