Unfortunately, Carlo Pedersoli Jr. is no longer a UFC fighter; however, the 26-year-old is now a Bellator MMA fighter.

Pedersoli came into the UFC white hot, with a record of 10-1, as the welterweight fighter was on a seven-fight winning streak before entering the promotion. Carlo was successful in his debut against Bradley Scott on May 27, 2018. However, the welterweight would go on to lose his next two fights via TKO against Alex Oliveira and Dwight Grant. Pedersoli Jr. confirmed his release and signing on Instagram:

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Dopo aver fatto tre match all'UFC tutti con short notice,pensavo di aver dato abbastanza all'azienda per avere un'altra possibilità negli ultimi due match del mio contratto. Non è stato così e nel frattempo ho ricevuto due proposte da altre organizzazioni. Una di queste due non poteva davvero essere rifiutata e quindi con molto entusiasmo annuncio la mia firma con la promotion Bellator. Il trattamento che mi hanno riservato,da ogni punto di vista, è andato al di la di ogni mia aspettativa e davvero mi sento apprezzato come non mai nella mia carriera. Ci sono progetti grandissimi e sono davvero emozionato di cominciare questa nuova avventura. #CPJr #SkyIsTheLimit #Semento #bellatormma

 “After having made three matches at the UFC everyone with short notice, I thought I had given enough to the company to get another chance in the last match of my contract. That was not the case and in the meantime I received two proposals from other organizations. One of these two could not really be refused and so with great enthusiasm I announced my signature with the Bellator promotion. The treatment I was given, from every point of view, has gone beyond my expectations and I truly feel appreciated as never before in my career. There are great projects and I'm really excited to start this new adventure.”

Despite his 1-2 record in the UFC, Carlo’s overall mixed martial arts record is 11 wins and 3 losses.
