Molly McCann faces Brazilian prospect Alexia Thainara in what promises to be a thrilling matchup. McCann, the Liverpool native brings her fan-friendly style to the octagon once again. Her nickname &lsquo;Meatball&rsquo; might make you chuckle, but her fighting skills are no laughing matter.<\/p><p>Thainara steps in as a late replacement for Istela Nunes, who withdrew for unknown reasons. The Brazilian newcomer earned her UFC contract through Dana White&rsquo;s Contender Series last September. This short-notice debut gives Thainara a golden opportunity to make an immediate impact in the strawweight division. With McCann&rsquo;s tendency for exciting fights and Thainara&rsquo;s submission-heavy record, fans might be in for something special.<\/p><p>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/jon-jones-has-a-major-demand-for-his-highly-anticipated-fight-against-tom-aspinall\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Jon Jones Has A Major Demand For His Highly Anticipated Fight Against Tom Aspinall<\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Molly McCann&rsquo;s MMA Journey<\/h2><p>Molly McCann&rsquo;s path to the UFC has been paved with grit and determination. She began her fighting career in Liverpool while working at Subway to make ends meet. McCann built her reputation on the regional circuit, capturing championships in Shock N&rsquo; Awe and Cage Warriors before signing with the UFC in 2018 with an impressive 7-1 record.<\/p><p>McCann&rsquo;s UFC career has been a rollercoaster ride of highs and lows. After a submission loss in her debut, she strung together three straight unanimous decision victories over Priscila Cachoeira, Ariane Lipski, and Diana Belbi&#539;a. However, back-to-back losses to Taila Santos and Lara Proc&oacute;pio threatened her UFC future.&nbsp;<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Remember when Molly McCann got back to back spinning back elbow KO's &#127786;&#65039;<br><br>Here is her knocking out Luana Carolina<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ouOuaQhWe8\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/ouOuaQhWe8<\/a><\/p>&mdash; MMA On Point (@OnPointMMA) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OnPointMMA\/status\/1902038169991967230?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>March 18, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>The resilient Liverpudlian bounced back in spectacular fashion, defeating Ji Yeon Kim in a Fight of the Night performance before delivering two of her most memorable moments; a spinning back elbow knockout of Luana Carolina and a first-round TKO of Hannah Goldy, both earning Performance of the Night bonuses.&nbsp;<\/p><p>After suffering submission losses to Erin Blanchfield and Julija Stoliarenko, McCann made the decision to drop to strawweight, where she got back to winning ways with an armbar submission over Diana Belbi&#539;a in their February 2024 rematch.

I was instantly hooked on MMA after watching the fight between Lyoto Machida vs. Gegard Mousasi back in 2014, and since then, i have been an avid writer with a deep love for the sport and its techniques, providing readers with a thorough understanding of the sport. My favorite aspect of working at The Playoffs is the creative freedom it provides. The diverse range of topics, from listicles and SEO to news articles, keeps me engaged and motivates me to continuously improve my skills! I aim to capture the excitement of the combat sports world in my writing, acting as the middleman between fighters and their die-hard fans. It is kind of like a referee, but with words!","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/zaid-quraishi-884927240?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=android_app"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/zaid\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30919"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/14"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30919"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30919\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30925,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30919\/revisions\/30925"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/30923"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30919"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30919"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30919"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
