Bibiano Fernandes da Silva Neto (born March 30, 1980) is a Brazilian-Canadian former professional mixed martial artist and black belt Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) practitioner. A professional from 2004 to 2025, he most notably competed in the Bantamweight division of ONE Championship, where he was the two-time and longest reigning ONE Bantamweight MMA World Champion, along with being the interim ONE FC Bantamweight Champion in 2013. He formerly competed in the Bantamweight and Featherweight divisions of DREAM, where he was the inaugural and last DREAM Bantamweight Champion, and the inaugural DREAM Featherweight Champion. He also won the DREAM 2009 Featherweight Grand Prix, and the DREAM 2011 Bantamweight World Grand Prix. Bibiano was the company’s second two-weight champion.

A five time World jiu-jitsu champion and three time Pan American champion, Fernandes was considered the top light-featherweight of his generation before transitioning to mixed martial arts (MMA). He previously competed for K-1, DREAM, and King of the Cage. He was once ranked as the #5 bantamweight in the world by MMA Weekly.
