Hard-hitting Mexican bantamweight and former title challenger known for crisp boxing and a long run among the division's best.

Irene Aldana is one of the most reliable contenders women's bantamweight has produced, a crisp, high-volume boxer who built her case over years of fights against the division's best. Her style is straightforward and fan-friendly: she comes to throw hands, and she's good enough at it to test anyone.
That consistency earned her a 2023 title shot against Amanda Nunes. She came up short against the greatest fighter the women's divisions have seen, but the bout cemented her status near the top, alongside close fights with names like Holly Holm and wins over ranked opponents.
As a face of Mexican women's MMA, Aldana carries weight beyond the rankings, and her boxing-first approach keeps her fights worth watching.
Why fans love Aldana
Sharp striking, fan-friendly fights, and her role as a standard-bearer for Mexican women's MMA.
