Gamrot made his return inside the UFC octagon in October 2020, where he faced Guram Kutateladze. His debut for the promotion didn’t start with success as he would face his first career loss against the Georgian. The fight was close to call as Gamrot had a lot of success but a knockdown by Kutaletladze was enough to win over two of the three judges.

His second career loss came in the hands of one of the top lightweights in the division against Beniel Dariush back in October of 2022. Mateusz Gamrot was on a 4 fight win streak going in against Dariush, but the more seasoned fighter managed to upset the Polish after a dominating performance. But this is just the UFC, which makes us wonder about his career outside of the UFC.

Has “Gamer” lost outside the UFC?

Mateusz Gamrot came into the UFC with an undefeated record of 13-0. He had an impressive 46% finish rate while joining the UFC which made quite a lot of people expect quite a lot from the Polish wrestler. The only fight where he came close to one was his fight against Norman Parke in KSW 39 back in 2017 after an accidental eye poke, which meant that the fight was ruled as a no-contest. He would later go on to finish Parke in their third fight.

His first ended in a draw against Borys Mańkowski in 2017, and his second against an MMA superstar from ONE Championship, Garry Tonon in 2019 at the ADCC World Championships.
