Morgan Charriere

The Last Pirate

France

Statement win in Paris
FeatherweightUFC
September 28, 2024
Charriere defeated Gabriel Miranda via KO (punch) at 0:27 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Paris.
ANALYSIS
Finding himself a shocking -550 favorite on the heels of a split decision defeat to Jose Marsical in April, Charriere managed to pay off despite the slow start. He was never in significant trouble in Round 1 despite allowing a pair of takedowns to Miranda. Once the bell rang for Round 2, Charriere uncorked a sweeping left which floored the Brazilian and forced referee Marc Goddard to immediately step in. Charriere had been wildly inconsistent on the European regional scene prior to his UFC arrival, so it would be shocking to see him suddenly put things together at the highest level.

Charriere will now face Gabriel Miranda at UFC Paris on September 28, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Charriere was originally supposed to face AJ Cunningham, who was forced to withdraw earlier this week for undisclosed reasons.

Charriere, who fights at featherweight, will be giving up height and reach advantages to Miranda, a former lightweight fighter. He'll have the home crowd behind him fighting in his native France.
Fighting in Paris
FeatherweightUFC
July 22, 2024
Charriere will take on AJ Cunningham at UFC Paris on Sep. 28, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Charriere will get just his third UFC fight in his career, and he'll look to move to 2-1 after losing to Jose Mariscal via split decision back in April. The French featherweight will take on another UFC newcomer in Cunningham, but Charriere holds a slight advantage in experience with 30 professional fights compared to Cunningham's 15.
Drops close split decision in Vegas
FeatherweightUFC
April 6, 2024
Charriere lost to Jose Mariscal via split decision (28-29, 30-27, 28-29) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
This fight was close and no one would have batted an eye if Charriere had gotten the decision, although the 30-27 scorecard, the only one in his favor, is quite awful. Morgan appeared to drop Round 1 and win Round 2, making Round 3 the one that mattered. The final frame was close throughout, but Charriere really struggled in the final minute or so after getting caught in a difficult position on the mat and that allowed Mariscal to pull ahead for good. The positive news is that Morgan managed a couple takedowns and stuffed 7-of-8 attempts from his opponent, both strong signs from a guy known almost entirely for his striking.

Charriere will fight Jose Mariscal at UFC Vegas 90 on April 6 after Seungwoo Choi (undiscosed) withdrew, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Charriere was victorious over Manolo Zecchini during his UFC debut in September, and he'll now have a month to prepare for his new opponent. Mariscal is also new to the promotion and has wins in each of his first two bouts.
Facing Choi in featherweight fight
FeatherweightUFC
January 14, 2024
Charriere is scheduled to face Seungwoo Choi in a featherweight bout at the UFC's April 6 event in Las Vegas, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Charriere made his UFC debut in September last year and made quick work of Manolo Zecchini, but Choi might represent a tougher challenge. Choi recently snapped a three-fight losing streak in August, when he clinched his first victory since 2021 after defeating Jarno Errens via unanimous decision.
