It has not been a good month for UFC middleweight Sedriques Dumas.
After being finished by Michal Oleksiejczuk at UFC 314 in Miami on April 12, “The Reaper” is now facing felony charges stemming from an alleged home invasion.
As first reported by Fight Swipe, 29-year old Dumas, who has had numerous previous encounters with the law, has been charged with three felonies in Escambia County, Florida: felony home invasion robbery without a firearm, felony possession of a weapon by a convicted felon, and felony possession of a controlled substance. Added to those are misdemeanor battery and misdemeanor drug equipment possession and or use charges.
Cageside Press verified the charges via an Escambia County records search. Dumas is listed as defendant in over 20 cases, historically, in that county alone, although those include traffic violations.
Dumas was taken into custody on Monday, April 28 with a pretrial hearing scheduled for May 6, per court records. He’s being represented by attorney Gregory Whibbs.
Dumas won his way into the UFC in 2022 via a win on Dana White’s Contender Series, and made his promotional debut the following year. He’s 3-3 in the promotion to date, and was coming off a win against Denis Tiuliulin prior to UFC 314 in Miami earlier this month.
Cageside Press has requested a copy of Dumas’ arrest record from the Escambia County Sheriff’s office.
