Colares made the walk to the Octagon six times from 2019 to 2022, defeating Domingo Pilarte and Luke Sanders while also facing the likes of Montel Jackson and Chris Gutierrez.
In 2022, after a loss to Chase Hooper, Colares was released from the promotion, but after a submission win over Alioune Nahaye in February, it was clear that he was on the comeback trail in a big way.
The UFC family sends its sincerest condolences to the family and friends of Felipe Colares.
