15 Female Prospects the UFC Should Sign in 2022

Josefine Lindgren Knutsson (Strawweight)

25 | 5’3” | Bromma, Sweden | 3-0 | 1 finish | 1 KO/TKO | Combined Opponents’ Record: 11-6 | Best win – Lanchana Green (4-3-1)

Knutsson has an extensive kickboxing career. Her kickboxing record is 27-5 and she has beat girls like Mellony Geugjes and Kana Morimoto. She also has a background in amateur Muay Thai and was the 2018 IFMA World Championships gold medallist. This girl could be the next big thing in MMA.

Knutsson will always have her takedown defense, and so far she hasn’t been taken down at all. Instead, Knutsson has been the one to get takedowns. She fights with a lot of volume, feints, and power. She also throws combinations alone with her kicks, but her striking altogether is excellent. Knutsson could possibly be the real deal and is similar to a younger version of Manon Fiorot.
