Manon Fiorot
THE FIGHTER
Manon Fiorot is the best women's fighter France has ever produced and one of the most technically impressive strikers in the UFC flyweight division. A professional kickboxer and boxer before transitioning to MMA, she brought clean, precise striking with excellent timing and footwork that made her almost impossible to catch clean. Her movement on the outside, her counter striking, and her ability to pick opponents apart while staying safe have made her one of the most exciting technical fighters at 125 pounds.
She went on a long unbeaten run in the UFC, defeating several ranked opponents back-to-back and entering the title conversation before facing Alexa Grasso. She has the striking ability to give any flyweight on the roster problems and the composure of a professional kickboxer who has competed at the highest levels of multiple combat sports.
Fiorot represents the growing European presence in women's MMA — a pipeline that the UFC has been deliberately developing, and one that is beginning to produce genuine title contenders across multiple divisions.

BIGGEST WINS
Manon Fiorot is the French exchange mom at the school event who says almost nothing, watches everything, and then in the game at the end moves so efficiently and so accurately that everyone just stops and stares. Very chic. Slightly terrifying.
