Related Topics: Liz Carmouche

After serving in the United States Marine Corps earlier in life, reigning Bellator MMA women’s flyweight champion Liz Carmouche moved into mixed martial arts, which changed her life forever. Famously known for being one-half of the first-ever women’s Ultimate Fighting Championship title bout when she faced Ronda Rousey back in 2013, Carmouche now finds herself at the pinnacle of her career as she enters the 2024 Professional Fighters League playoffs.

Looking to add a second title to her resume, Carmouche is currently riding a nine-fight winning streak and credits her growth as a person and fighter to her time invested in MMA.
