UFC Fighter Sedriques Dumas Arrested On Multiple Charges
UFC middleweight fighter Sedriques Dumas has found himself in legal trouble once again, following his arrest on Monday, April 28, 2025, in Escambia County, Florida. Dumas, who holds a professional MMA record of 10-3 and a UFC record of 3-3, faces five charges, including felony home invasion robbery without a firearm, felony possession of a weapon by a convicted felon, felony possession of a controlled substance, misdemeanor battery, and misdemeanor drug equipment possession.
According to online arrest records, Dumas was taken into custody and appeared before Judge Kristina Denise Lightel for a video pretrial hearing on Tuesday, April 29. His bond was set at $558,500, and he is scheduled for a pretrial hearing on May 6, followed by an arraignment on May 23.
This marks the 14th time Dumas has been arrested in Escambia County since 2014. His most recent arrest prior to this incident occurred in February 2024, when he was charged with misdemeanor battery during a domestic altercation. That case was later dismissed.
Dumas last competed in the Octagon at UFC 314 on April 12, 2025, where he suffered a first-round TKO loss to Michał Oleksiejczuk. Despite his struggles inside the cage, Dumas has remained a controversial figure outside of it, with a history of legal issues that have overshadowed his MMA career.
The UFC has yet to issue a statement regarding Dumas’ arrest or his future with the promotion.
