Hettes defeated Alex Caceres and Nam Phan at UFC 141 in Las Vegas, then lost a decision to Marcus Brimage at UFC 152 in Toronto. His judo throws, trips, and submission transitions are reflected in a 82 BJJ and 82 Wrestling rating in his promotional tenure.
In 2014, Hettes finished Robert Whiteford via second-round triangle choke at UFC 171 in Dallas before suffering doctor-stoppage TKO losses to Dennis Bermudez and Diego Brandao due to cuts.
