Fighting out of Guadalajara, Mexico, Alexa Grasso achieved her goal by climbing the mountain to become the UFC Women's Flyweight Champion of the World. She achieved this MMA record by displaying incredible talent, a friendly disposition and immaculate professionalism. We couldn't be prouder to partner with her, and bear witness as she reaches the pinnacle of her sport.
A Stunning Takedown
Following victory over Viviane Araujo, Grasso got her shot at the title at UFC 285 in March 2023, and grasped the opportunity with both hands. She grew into the fight in the early exchanges before a stunning takedown, followed by a brutal rear-naked choke hold which had one of the all time greats in Valentina Shevchenko tapping out in the fourth round.
The rematch took place at Noche UFC in September 2023 and resulted in an equally memorable match that ebbed and flowed throughout the five rounds. Ultimately, the judges couldn't split the two fighters and Alexa retained the title via a draw.
Hugely Proud
Alexa Grasso has now achieved UFC greatness; she took out a lot of top contenders along her way and she has always performed, regardless of the odds or challenges. She has proven fight fans wrong countless times, and had the UFC belt to show for it. Her victory over Shevchenko and subsequent title defence will live long in the memory and we are hugely proud to call her our partner.
