Amanda Ribas Is Confident and Competitive

There aren’t many fighters like Amanda Ribas with her bubbly personality, but make no mistake,once those Octagon doors close, it’s all business.

Ribas has become a strawweight and flyweight staple, fighting against the best those divisions has to offer. This includes Mackenzie Dern (twice), Rose Namajunas and Virna Jandiroba, just to name a few. Having wins over Dern and Jandiroba at 115 pounds can also prove to be very telling if Ribas can continue to climb from that 7th ranked spot she is in.

Ribas just celebrated her Institute’s first benefit dinner and she couldn’t be more excited about how her UFC journey has opened another opportunity to make a difference.
