Gustavo Falciroli (born 13 December 1982) is an Australian-Brazilian mixed martial artist. Brazilian-born Gustavo has lived in Australia since 2007 and is an Australian citizen. Gustavo Falciroli is the reigning Cage Fighting Championship and Australian Fighting Championship bantamweight champions, one of the most decorated mixed martial arts fighters in Australia and a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt fourth degree.

Gustavo started his training in 1996 with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with Paulo Roberto de Miranda Streckert and has also trained with Carlos Alberto Liberi, in 2003 he was awarded his black belt by Roberto Tozi and Roberto Godoi. After placing third at the BJJ World Championships, winning the Brazilian Cup and taking home a slew of state titles in Brazil—all as a black belt—in 2007 he made the move to Australia and the transition into MMA. Since entering the world of mixed martial arts, Gustavo has replicated the success he found in BJJ and is renowned for his ability to apply his grappling and submissions in MMA.

Gustavo made his mixed martial arts debut at Shooto Australia in Perth in May, 2007. Gustavo defeated Richie Vaculik for the inaugural Cage Fighting Championships (CFC) bantamweight title at CFC 12, December 2010, via unanimous decision (5 rounds). He defended for the first time on 9 December 2011, winning by submission against Nick Honstein at Cage Fighting Championship 19. In February 2012 Gustavo attended at ONE Fighting Championship: Battle of Heroes, Jakarta to be the first ever Australian to fight in the Asian show. He submitted Soo Chul Kim via rear naked choke on the first round to become victorious. In August 2012 Gustavo contended in a main event ONE Fighting Championship at ONE Fighting Championship: Pride of a Nation, Philippines. He was defeated by Bibiano Fernandes via unanimous decision. Gustavo is the inaugural Australian Fighting Championship (AFC) bantamweight title holder after defeating New Zealander Kai Kara-France at AFC 9, via submission in round 1 in May 2014. The title fight was a rematch from AFC 7 after France fell out of the ring after being knocked out and struck a ringside table, a controversial No Contest was adjudicated by officials.
