Born and raised in Brazil, Bezerra began training in Brazilian jiu-jitsu at the age of 16, and was talented, winning various titles. Bezerra has also trained in kickboxing and judo. Bezerra attended law school before dropping out to further pursue a career in professional mixed martial arts.[5]
Mixed martial arts career
Early career
Bezerra made his professional MMA debut in 2006, where he fought Alessandro Cabeca in his professional debut, winning via second-round TKO.[6]
At only 2–0, Bezerra took a fight against another up-and-comer, and future UFC Interim Bantamweight Champion, Renan Barão. The fight was very closely contested and ended in a split decision loss for Bezerra.[6] He won his next fight via submission before suffering his second loss to Joao Paulo Rodrigues de Souza. Bezerra bounced back from the loss with first round submission wins over future UFC fighter, Felipe Arantes and tough journeyman, Felipe Alves.[6]
On December 5, 2009, at the Platinum Fight Brazil 2 fight card, Bezerra fought future Bellator contender, Genair da Silva. He lost the fight via doctor stoppage after the end of round two.[6] After the loss, Bezerra went on a five fight winning streak, where he claimed multiple titles for several promotions, and was named BloodyElbow.com's 2012 #1 Bantamweight prospect, despite never fighting in the division.[7]
The Ultimate Fighter
In March 2012, it was revealed that Bezerra was selected to be a participant on The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil.[8] Bezerra defeated Dileno Lopes via technical knockout in the first round to move into the Ultimate Fighter house, and become an official cast member.[9]
Bezerra was selected as the first overall pick by Wanderlei Silva, to be a part of Team Wanderlei.[10] In the last quarterfinal fight, Bezerra was selected to fight his close friend and training partner Anistavio Medeiros. Bezerra won the fight via technical submission after applying an armbar to Meideiros, nearly breaking his arm which forced the referee to intervene and stop the fight.[11]
In the semi-final round, Bezerra was matched-up against Hugo Viana from Team Vitor. After three rounds, Bezerra was declared the winner via unanimous decision. The win moved him into the finals set to take place at UFC 147.[12]
Bezerra fought Sam Sicilia on October 13, 2012, at UFC 153.[14] After a hard back-and-forth slug fest, Bezerra dropped Sicilia with a big right and finished with hammerfists to earn the second-round TKO stoppage.[15] He won Knockout of the Night honors with his performance.[16]
Bezerra faced Steven Siler on March 23, 2014, at UFC Fight Night 38.[23] He won the fight via a controversial TKO stoppage in the first round. Siler was initially dropped by two punches from Bezerra. Siler, having his back on the mat, immediately threw an up-kick as soon as Bezerra proceeded to walk toward him. At the very same time the referee stepped in to stop the fight as a conscious Siler was attempting to defend himself.[24]
Bezerra faced Damon Jackson on May 30, 2015, at UFC Fight Night 67.[29] He won the fight via triangle choke submission in the first round.[30] The victory also produced a Performance of the Night bonus.[31] On June 18, 2015, it was announced that Bezerra tested positive for hydrochlorothiazide, which is a banned diuretic, therefore his submission victory was overturned and he received a nine-month suspension.[32] The UFC rescinded Jason's $50,000 "Performance of the Night" award.[33]
On October 10, 2017, Bezerra was released from UFC roster.[38]
Post-UFC career
After being released from the UFC, Bezerra signed with Lux Fight League. He made his promotional debut against Diego Lopes at Lux 004 on March 15, 2019, losing the fight via unanimous decision.[39]
Bezerra made his sophomore appearance in the promotion against Edgar Díaz Guzman at Lux 005 on July 19, 2019. He won the fight via first-round knockout.[40]
Next Bezerra faced Alexander Grozin at RCC Intro 6 on November 16, 2019.[41] He lost the fight via unanimous decision.
Bezerra then faced Daniel Bažant for the vacant FNC Featherweight Championship at FNC 5 on March 26, 2022.[42] He lost the bout via unanimous decision.
He then faced Filip Pejić at FNC 11 on May 28, 2023.[43] He won the bout via first-round knockout.[44]
Jason faced Tariel Abbasov on December 16, 2023 at FNC 14, winning the bout via arm-triangle choke in the third round after losing the first two.[45]
Controversies
On November 9, 2013, after losing to Jeremy Stephens at UFC Fight Night 32: Belfort vs. Henderson, Bezerra punched a hole in a wall at the backstage where he required a dozen stitches and was suspended 30 days from Brazilian MMA Athletic Commission (CABMMA).[46]
In October 2017, two videos were released where Bezerra was seen yelling and striking his sister who was lying on the pavement with multiple bystanders attempting to restrain him.[47][38][48][49]
Originally a submission (triangle choke) win for Jason; overturned after he tested positive for hydrochlorothiazide. Performance of the Night forfeited.
