In this era, some women have gone a step forward to defeat gender-based fears. They are the powerful gals and ladies of this era. They not only make their people proud but also the world as a whole. As you know, the championship isn’t born in a day. Only the people with real devotion and dedication actually win in life.
Incredible talents like Cristiane Cyborg, Amanda Nunes, and Joanna Jedrzejczyk prove they are the best female UFC fighters. Read on to know the top female UFC fighters in this era.
5. Amanda Nunes
Since suffering her a loss of Cat Zingano back in 2014, Amanda has established herself as the best female MMA of all time.
She has worn several women MMA’s titles including Ronda Rousey and Holly Holm featuring her as the best and first female UFC female champion.
Her fights with Valentina Shevchenko have presented the most anticipated rivalries in the franchise yet Amanda has come out as the winner in both fights indicating that the Brazillian fairly preserves her slot in the list of all-time great female UFC fighters.
4. Joanna Jedrzejczyk
Joanna Jedrzejczyk is a polish MMA who participates in the women’s strawweight UFC division. She has been the third UFC champion in this category after Andrei Arlovski in 2005 and Bas Rutten in 1999.
Anyone who has ever watched Joanna’s fights can explain why she is appearing among the top 5 females UFC fighters of this list.
At the age of 28, this fem9ale UFC champion has tracked over all comers, firstly in her native Poland, and then in UFC. She has a beautiful blend of clinch work and strike that you may not notice but feel.
She is extremely aggressive with a knockout power that reflects her body size. Besides her violent attribute, she might be the best skilled female UFC fighter currently. She very well understands the psychology of winning fans. Also, her brash talk leavened with a touch of humor and sweetened by candor highly influences her opponents.
3. Yuka Tsuji
Now get up on your feet and give it up for the Vale Tudo Queen.
Tsuji is really among the pioneers—or maybe the pioneer of the UFC women games being the first woman to walk home with an MMA title. She has defended her smack girl belt five times before being added to the Valkyrie promotion’s featherweight title.
And you thought Rousey’s 9 Armber wins make her the specialist? Then you’ve not met Vale Tudo Queen’s 12 Armber wins.
She did not meet the female warriors that are common today. But all that she did during her time is enough to book her place on the best UFC/MMA royalty.
2. Cristiane Justino “The Cyborg”
The muay Thai destroyer from Curitiba, Brazil, is the only Rousey’s equal. She has never lost a single fight since she launched her professional fighting career. The last eight garnered wins all came through a knockout. What an incredible lady? In the previous years, only Coenen has ever survived up to the second round inside the cage with “The Cyborg”.
1. Ronda Rousey
She is the UFC GOAT (Greatest Of All Time). Excited Rousey? Celebrate a bit. You are much welcome. At the top of our consciousness, we all understand the reason why she is here.
If you an MMA fan, you can agree with me that you can’t go for 15 minutes without hearing about her.
And remember, she is still getting bigger and better. “Being a first-Armber lady is not a thing to boast for”, Say Rousey. So now what? she is knocking people out. Practically her last four bouts have gone to a total of two minutes and 10 seconds.
Bottom Line
There are other different fighters especially the ones in this list who also deserve to be recognized. There are a bunch of them who have taken part in constructing this nascent and growing this sport. But no other female UFC fighter has been bigger and better than Rousey.
