Mini bio
How it started.
Born in Clovis, New Mexico, Raul began training at four. In his UFC athlete Q&A, he says it started as fun, then became serious after he watched his father fight. He turned professional in November 2021.
The teenage breakthrough.
On September 20, 2022, Raul beat Mando Gutierrez on Dana White’s Contender Series and earned a UFC contract at 17, the youngest signing in the promotion’s history. Three months later, he submitted Jay Perrin at UFC 282 and became the youngest fighter to win a UFC bout.
Learning in public.
His first professional loss came against Christian Rodriguez in 2023. Raul later told UFC.com it made him rethink his preparation and diet. He rebuilt his run with wins over Terrence Mitchell, Ricky Turcios, Aoriqileng, Vince Morales and Rob Font, then won his first UFC main event against Raoni Barcelos in September 2026.
Beyond the cage.
His official links introduce fans to Chiwiwis Gang, including a video about joining Fuerza Regida onstage and collaborating with Txunamy. In 2026, he also competed in submission-only grappling against Deiveson Figueiredo and Colby Covington.
