About Jennifer Maia
A decade of consistency all the way to a title fight
Jennifer Maia built a long career before reaching the most important opportunity of her career. An Invicta FC champion and a veteran since 2009, she came to the UFC with far more experience than most new signings.
Fighting style
Her style combines Muay Thai, good close-range boxing and defensive grappling solid enough to keep fights in the areas that suit her. She never depended on a single spectacular tool, but on a very consistent technical base.
The title fight
In 2020 she challenged Valentina Shevchenko for the flyweight championship and even clearly won one of the rounds before losing by decision. She then kept competing near the top and added wins over names like Casey O'Neill and Maryna Moroz.
