Women in combat sports

Women in combat sports have made significant strides in recent years, breaking down barriers and challenging traditional gender stereotypes. From boxing and kickboxing to mixed martial arts and wrestling, women are now competing at the highest levels of combat sports and gaining greater recognition for their skills and athleticism.

One of the most notable examples of women in combat sports is Ronda Rousey, who became the first female fighter to sign with the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) in 2012. Rousey quickly rose to fame, winning her first six fights by armbar submission and becoming the UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion. Her success helped to pave the way for other female fighters, and today the UFC features several weight classes for women.

In boxing, women such as Claressa Shields and Katie Taylor have achieved great success, winning multiple world titles and Olympic medals. In kickboxing, fighters like Anissa Meksen and Tiffany Van Soest have become top-ranked contenders, while in wrestling, stars like Adeline Gray and Helen Maroulis have won world championships and Olympic medals.
