The best female MMA fighter of all time is Amanda Nunes, who has accomplished everything in just six years. Her matchup with Ronda Rousey at UFC 207’s main card event drew over a million PPV purchases.

Cris Cyborg is the only fighter in MMA history to have won championships in each of the four main leagues. She has won gold at the IBFF and is a seasoned BJJ fighter.

Valentina naturally outclassed and outpunched everyone in her way to become the first-ever UFC flyweight champion. She has long held the title of supreme authority in the 125-pound weight class.



She is also the first competitor to twice defeat Zhang Weili, the current 115-pound champion in the UFC. Rose was raised in poverty after being born to two Lithuanian refugees. Additionally, she has consistently used her position to raise awareness of mental health issues.


The "Preacher's Daughter" left the squared circle and entered MMA. She has captured both the welterweight and light-welterweight world titles. She immediately won the UFC championship after defeating Rousey and accomplished the unbelievable.
