I know that this blog is "supposed" to be about running. Truthfully I haven't felt like writing a whole lot about running as much lately. That's why the number of entries has dropped a bit. No, nothing's wrong, just nothing much new or exciting is going on in my life in terms of running. It's A-OK. I know that I'll still mostly focus on running, but UFC 241's results got me thinking of an old blog I wrote for in 2014. I included all time rankings for a few MMA weight classes before we shut the blog down. Here's my old logo though:
I'll be honest, I don't know a whole lot about the history of women's MMA or about some of the smaller weights contested in Asia. (Michelle Waterson notwithstanding) Fight Matrix has 35 women on their all time open weight rankings and I only recognize about 20 of the names. So, unfortunately, I'm not really going to be able to give full listings if I break them out into weight classes. What I'll do instead is give some honorable mentions and my top 10 for all weight classes. If I skip over some of your favorite Japan-based women or WMMA pioneers, I'm sorry.
Honorable mentions: Holly Holm, Zoila Frausto/Gurgel, Ilima Lei MacFarlane, Megumi Fujii, Jessica Aguilar, Carla Esparza, Marloes Coenen, Roxanne Modafferi, Tonya Evinger
10. Barb Honchak
Years Active: 2009 to present
Record: 10-4
Championship: Invicta FC (defended twice)
Title Fight Record: 3-0
Big League record: 5-2
Notable wins: Roxanne Modafferi, Leslie Smith, Vanessa Porto
Barb "Little Warrior" Honchak is a WMMA pioneer, having won the inaugural Invicta FC flyweight belt and defending it twice before moving on to the UFC. She entered TUF 26 as the favorite but fell to eventual champ Nicco Montano in the semifinals. She was also the Women's MMA fighter of the year in 2013. However, what's hurting Honchak on this list is strength of schedule, having never fought a UFC or Strikeforce champ or anyone on this top 10 list. However, she went 1-1 vs Roxanne Modafferi, on the "honorable mention" list. She was released from the UFC in 2018, so we'll see if she continues her storied career.
9. Julia Budd
Years Active: 2010 to present
Record: 13-2 (all "big league" fights)
Championships: Bellator (current, defended 3x)
Title Fight Record: 4-0
vs champs record: 2-2
vs top 10 record: 0-2
Notable wins: Marloes Coenen, Germaine de Randemie, Arlene Blencowe (x2)
At age 36, The Jewel has maybe just now hit her stride. She won the Bellator 145 lb title over Marloes Coenen in 2017 and has since defended it three times. Starting her martial arts career in Muay Thai, Budd went 10-2, including a victory over Gina Carano. She avenged a Muay Thai loss to former UFC champ Germaine de Randemie early in her MMA career. An amazing thing about her career is that it has only taken place in major organizations, debuting in Strikeforce before moving to Invicta and now Bellator. Her only career losses came in her second and fourth professional fights and they were to Ronday Rousey and Amanda Nunes. I mean, come on. Currently, Budd is tied for #40 on Bellator's all time win list and #32 in KOs. She recently signed a 4 fight deal with Bellator, so expect to see her climb up those lists.
8. Tara LaRosa
Years Active: 2002 to 2015
Record: 22-5
Big League Record: 0-2
Championships: Ultimate Cage Wars, Bodog Fight, Locked in the Cage, DaMMAge Fight League
Title Fight Record: 4-0
Notable wins: Alexis Davis, Julie Kedzie, Shayna Baszler, Roxanne Modafferi
Tara LaRosa is a highly credentialed grappler, using her judo base to propel her to multiple FILA and NAGA gold medals as well as a couple of ADCC silver medals. This obviously translated well as she won every single title fight she fought in and was FightMatrix's #1 Flyweight from 2010-2012. The peak of LaRosa's career may have been her four fight undefeated streak in Bodog. Unfortunately for LaRosa, WMMA just wasn't a big deal until much later in her career. She never got to fight any UFC or Strikeforce champs and lost her only two Invicta fights at the tail end of her career.
7. Miesha Tate
Years Active: 2007 to 2016
Record: 18-7
Big League Record: 11-6
Championships: Freestyle Cage Fighting, Strikeforce, UFC
Title Fight Record: 4-3
vs champs record: 2-4
vs top 10 record: 0-4
Notable wins: Marloes Coenen, Sara McMann, Liz Carmouche, Zoila Frausto Gurgel, Julie Kedzie, Holly Holm
If only Ronda Rousey hadn't been around, Miesha "Cupcake" Tate might be ranked higher up on this list. Or there wouldn't even be a list. After all, Dana White has said that it was Tate and Rousey's Strikeforce championship fight that convinced him to bring WMMA to the UFC. Known for her grappling style, Tate has continued competitive grappling into retirement. Her peak came at a great time, as she became a media darling and a foil to superstar Ronda Rousey. Maybe this has influenced my ranking, placing her higher. She was World MMA Award's 2011 Female Fighter of the Year and her comeback win over Holly Holm was an all time great. Miesha consistently fought top competition, winning more often than not. After all is said and done, she may become more well known for her MMA business acumen and commentary. For now, I'll put her as my #7 all time WMMA fighter.
6. Sarah Kaufman
Years Active: 2006 to present
Record: 21-4-1
Big League record: 10-3
Championships: HCF (defended 1x), Strikeforce (defended 1x), Invicta FC
Title Fight Record: 4-2
vs champs record: 1-2
vs top 10 record: 0-2
Notable wins: Alexis Davis (x2), Miesha Tate, Liz Carmouche, Roxanne Modafferi
The 2009 WMMA fighter of the year has won two of the major titles in the sport and is potentially two fights away from another title shot in a well-exposed but fledgling organization, the PFL. After 13 years into her career, when most athletes are looking for "legacy" fights, Kaufman jumped up two whole weight classes to seek a shot at Kayla Harrison, a former 2x Olympic Judo Gold medalist. We'll keep an eye on how the PFL playoffs end up, but Sarah's already got a resume that firmly plants her in the top 10 of all time. She was the inaugural Strikeforce bantamweight champ, WMMA's marquee weight class. After a run of high-level fights in the UFC, Kaufman decided to be a free agent and picked up the Invicta FC bantamweight division belt. Sarah can only add to that impressive resume with her PFL run.
5. Valentina Shevchenko
Years Active: 2003 to present
Record: 18-3
Big League record: 7-2
Championships: UFC (current, defended 2x)
Title Fight Record: 3-1
vs champs record: 2-2
vs top 10 record: 2-2
Notable wins: Joanna Jedrzejczyk, Sarah Kaufman, Holly Holm, Liz Carmouche
Valentina "Bullet" Shevchenko is the current UFC flyweight champion. The flyweight division is young, having had only 3 title fights with Valentina winning two of them. (The initial champion, Nicco Montano was stripped for missing weight). However, Valentina showed her abilities in the bantamweight division, taking champ Amanda Nunes to decision twice. Shevchenko holds MMA and Muay Thai world championships and in both combat sports holds victories against Joanna Jedrzejczyk, who we'll see on this list. Bullet is only 31 and will have a chance to not only extend her title reign but move up this list before the book is written on her already remarkable career. Let's not forget though, she started her career at the age of 15!
4. Joanna Jedrzejczyk
Years Active: 2012 to present
Record: 15-3
Big League record: 9-3
Championships: UFC (defended 5x)
Title Fight Record: 6-3
vs champs record: 1-3
vs top 10 record: 0-1
Notable wins: Jessica Andrade, Jessica Penne, Carla Esparza, Claudia Gadelha (x2)
Joanna Champion (no, I'm not trying to retype her last name every time) might not have the strongest record vs champs on this list. However, that's more of a testament to her dominant run than a lack of ability or quality opponents. Joanna Champion won multiple kickboxing and Muay Thai world championships before moving to WMMA in 2012. She carried that high volume style over to the octagon and had one of the most dominant championship runs in UFC history (tied for #7 for consecutive title defenses). Joanna's resume also contains multiple entries in the UFC history books for significant strikes and leg kicks. Furthermore her pair of fights with Claudia Gadelha are two of my favorite fights ever, due to her ability to weather the storm and outlast her opponent. Her future is a bit up in the air now as she seems to be firmly #2 in both strawweight and flyweight after losing to both Rose Namajunas and Valentina Shevchenko. I'm excited to see what she decides to do next.
3. Ronda Rousey
Years Active: 2010 to 2016
Record: 12-2
Big League record: 10-2
Championships: Strikeforce (defended 1x), UFC (defended 6x)
Title Fight Record: 8-2
vs champs record: 3-2
vs top 10 record: 3-1
Notable wins: Miesha Tate (x2), Sarah Kaufman, Alexis Davis, Liz Carmouche
If this list was "most influential" or "most popular" MMA fighter ever (male or female) there would be no question on who #1 would be. Ronda became an international superstar due to her utter dominance and seeming invincibility during her run on the top. Joanna Champion might have been tied for #7 on the UFC's most title defenses list but guess who was just in front of her. Ronda used the slick (and sometimes brutal) submissions that helped her win bronze at the 2008 Olympics in judo to reel off 8 straight armbar wins to start her career. After that, she decided to mix in some KOs to keep things interesting. She was compared to Mike Tyson, but with submissions instead of knockouts. Fans started betting not on if she'd win or get a finish, but how quickly. In fact, it wasn't until her 8th professional fight that a fighter was able to survive the first round. That was Miesha Tate and she ended up tapping to an armbar in the 3rd round. Her 60% win percentage vs other champs puts her tied for #41 in history with people like Anderson Silva and Brock Lesnar. What keeps Rowdy Ronda from #1 on this list is her last two fights. She went from one of the most dominant champs ever to being completely outclassed by Holly Holm and Amanda Nunes. However, we cannot forget the tear that she went on over the first 12 fights of her career.
2. Cris Cyborg
Years Active: 2005 to present
Record: 21-2-1
Big League record: 17-1-1
Championships: Strikeforce (defended 2x), Invicta FC (defended 3x), UFC (defended 2x)
Title Fight Record: 10-1-1
vs champs record: 3-1
vs top 10 record: 0-1
Notable wins: Tonya Evinger, Gina Carano, Holly Holm
Cris Cyborg lost her first professional fight in 2005 via double armbar. That's the only double armbar I've ever heard of in MMA. Then she won 20 matches in a row and became the most terrifying fighter in WMMA. I guess it's not all about how you start. The 2x WMMA fighter of the year broke onto the scene in 2009 after her beatdown of the media friendly Gina Carano. It was the first high profile fight in WMMA and let the world know about this Brazilian smashing machine. Cris is the only woman to hold Strikeforce, Invicta FC, and UFC titles during her career. Brought to the UFC to fight Ronda Rousey, Cris never could drop the weight to make 135 and Ronda wasn't willing to go up to 145. So, the UFC created the featherweight division for Cris. That was nice of them. After winning and defending her belt a few times, Cris ran into Amanda Nunes and suffered her first defeat in 13 years. At 34 years and coming off a dominating win, the future is uncertain for Cris. She has been released by the UFC but Bellator and the PFL have shown interest. We'll see if that sets up fights between her and other top 10 fighters Julia Budd or Sarah Kaufman.
1.Amanda Nunes
Years Active: 2008 to present
Record: 18-4
Big League record: 13-3
Championships: UFC (bantamweight and featherweight, current defended BW 3x, FW 1x)
Title Fight Record: 6-0
vs champs record: 6-0
vs top 10 record: 6-0
Notable wins: Cris Cyborg, Ronda Rousey, Julia Budd, Miesha Tate, Holly Holm
Let's take a minute to look at The Lioness' resume for just a moment, shall we. She's second only to Jon Jones for the best vs champs record of all time (He has fought one more than her so he gets the edge on my list). She has won every title fight she's been in and has beaten 5 women on this top 10 list. She is the only woman to hold two UFC belts and she's doing it concurrently. She's a 2x WMMA fighter of the year. She's the only woman in UFC history to be in the top 100 in wins, top 50 in KOs, and top 50 in finishes. (Jessica Andrade is the only other woman on any of those lists, they're both tied for #68 in wins) AND this is her second mention in my blog. (A while back to she was the Hawks to Cat Zingano's Mighty Ducks in a post about personal victories in sports) That last one may be her most cherished. Amanda also lost her first fight via armbar (just one as far as I know) but did not have the type of streak that Cyborg did. She did, however, pick up wins in Invicta FC and Strikeforce before joining the UFC. The loss against Zingano in 2014 cost her a title shot, but she made it up by winning the title in 2016 over Miesha Tate. The media played her up as a one time champ as her next fight was against a returning Ronda Rousey. Those of us that followed MMA more closely didn't quite agree and weren't surprised when she drubbed Rowdy out of the sport altogether. Again, when Amanda went up to 145 to fight a fighter NO ONE wanted to fight, she wasn't expected to pull off the win. She certainly wasn't expected to knock Cris Cyborg out. That's just what she did and still holds both belts. I'm unsure of what her plans are, but I hope she continues to defend both belts.
So there you have it, my top 10 All Time WMMA fighters. Go ahead and comment what you agree or disagree on. Did I miss your favorite fighter? Should I reshuffle the top 10? What about Rose Namajunas, Jessica Aguilar, and Megumi Fujii?
Next, I'll tackle the men's flyweight (125 lb) division.
Honorable mentions: Holly Holm, Zoila Frausto/Gurgel, Ilima Lei MacFarlane, Megumi Fujii, Jessica Aguilar, Carla Esparza, Marloes Coenen, Roxanne Modafferi, Tonya Evinger
