Alberto Mina (born May 2, 1982) is a Brazilian mixed martial artist who competes in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. He currently competes in the welterweight division.

A native of Campina Grande in northeast Brazil, Mina made his professional debut in October 2005.

He compiled a record of 10 - 0 interspersed with periods of inactivity, competing for several regional promotions around the world before signing with the UFC in January 2014.

Mina was set to make his promotional debut against Zak Cummings on March 1, 2014 at The Ultimate Fighter China Finale. However, at the weigh-ins for the event, Cummings came in eight pounds over the welterweight limit. On the advice of his coaches, Mina would not agree to compete at a catch weight, so the bout was scratched from the event.

Mina was expected to face Sheldon Westcott on August 23, 2014 at UFC Fight Night 48. However, in the days leading up to the event, Westcott pulled out of the bout citing an injury and was replaced by Shinsho Anzai. He won the fight via TKO in the first round and was awarded a Performance of the Night bonus.

Mina returned to face Yoshihiro Akiyama on November 28, 2015 at UFC Fight Night 79. He won the back-and-forth fight via split decision.

Mina next faced Mike Pyle on July 7, 2016 at UFC Fight Night 90. He won via knockout in the second round.
