Gabriel Anthony Green[1] (born May 2, 1993) is an American mixed martial artist who competes in the Welterweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship.

Background

Coming from an athletic family, Green played football while attending Warren High School and had a boxing bag in his backyard where his father taught him to box.[4] He would eventually join a gym after his friend suggested they try together and after two months had his first amateur bout. He would win his next 6 amateur bouts before going pro because of lack of opponents on the amateur scene.[5]

Green attended California State University, Long Beach, where he earned his bachelor's degree in business despite starting out in the pre-med program.[6][7]

Having his debut in 2016, he compiled a 9–2 record before the UFC fighting mostly in California, winning the CXF 160 lb Championship in his last bout before his short notice bout in the UFC.
