About Joanne Wood
Scottish Muay Thai for a decade among the elite
Joanne Wood was one of the original fighters who helped build the UFC's women's divisions. The Scot reached the promotion after standing out in Invicta FC and took part in the historic 20th season of The Ultimate Fighter.
Fighting style
Her identity was always closely tied to Muay Thai. Wood used a high volume of strikes, knees and elbows from the clinch and considerable offensive variety when she could set her own rhythm.
A decade in the women's divisions
She competed at both strawweight and flyweight and came close to a title shot on several occasions. She faced names like Valentina Shevchenko, Alexa Grasso, Jennifer Maia and Taila Santos before closing a long career that made her one of the foundational veterans of the first decade of women's MMA in the UFC.
