For Maria Agapova, this victory was the ninth in her professional career and the first in the UFC.

Recall that the biography of Maria from the very beginning looks like it is a movie. She began her career with the professional sports club “Akhmat” in Pavlodar, where she became the world champion in MMA and the winner of various championships of international level.

After some time, she flew to the USA, where she made an unsuccessful attempt to get into the UFC and announced that. Then she was offered assistance in career advancement. She stayed in Miami, continued training at the American Top Team, won two fights at Invicta FC and received a contract with the UFC.

Congratulations to Maria on a well-deserved victory!
