The Top Three Female MMA Fighters



These women of MMA fighting are as tough as they are hard-working, and it's no surprise that female MMA fighters who work out and train for a living would look knock-out gorgeous outside of the ring, so it shouldn't be any surprise either that some of the top MMA girl fighters are also some of the hottest female athletes in America and the rest of the world.

1. Ronda Rousey:

Ronda “Roudy” Rousey is women’s MMA’s finest fighter. She was the first ever female UFC Bantamweight Champion; a title she still holds. Before becoming a professional MMA fighter, Rousey was competing in the Olympics. In 2008, she became the first American to medal is women’s Judo at the Games. In her first MMA fight, she knocked out Hayden Munoz in the first 23 seconds of the fight. Since that match, she has won an additional eight straight. The undefeated, fourth degree black belt is credited with introducing trash talking into the sport. Rousey is constantly belittling her opponents in the ring and on TV. She claims it is a way to make the sport more appealing to viewers. Obviously, it has not only done this, but it has also allowed her to get into her opponents’ heads and break their focus.

2. Cat Zingano

Cat Zingano is one of the best female MMA fighters of all time. She is undefeated and has knocked out four opponents during her career in the UFC. The fighter for Black House MMA weighs in at 135 pounds and stand 5’6” tall. She prefers to use Brazilian Jiu Jitsu moves in her fights. On April 13th, 2013, Zingano became the first female MMA fighter to win by technical knockout. She is currently ranked the fifth best pound for pound MMA fighter and on January 17th, 2014, she officially became ranked the number one bantamweight female fighter in the UFC. At age 31, it is uncertain how much longer she will continue her career. Her body has taken a lot of abuse in the sport and she is now being forced to face younger, fresher opponents.

3. Sarah Kaufman

Sarah Kaufman was the first ever Strikeforce Women’s Bantamwieght Champion. Currently, she is the sixth highest ranked fighter in that weight class. She has won sixteen of her nineteen fights. Her two losses have come against fellow superstars Ronda Rousey and Marloes Coenen. Her dangerous mix of kickboxing and Brazilian Jui Jitsu skills has allowed her to win ten fights by way of knockout.
