Milana Dudieva (Russian: Милана Дудиева; born August 4, 1989) is a Russian mixed martial artist who formerly competed in the Bantamweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).[1]
Dudieva made her debut in 2009 against Julia Berezikova, losing by submission to strikes in the first round. Dudieva won her next eight fights including a win over future UFC Women's Bantamweight Sheila Gaff.[2] [3]
Dudieva would drop next two fights to Jéssica Andrade[4] and Pannie Kianzad.
After winning her next two fights Dudieva signed a contract with UFC and was expected to make her debut at UFC 174 against Germaine de Randamie.[5] De Randamie pulled out of the fight due to injury and would be replaced by Valerie Letourneau.[6] Dudieva would also get forced off the card due to injury and was replaced by Elizabeth Phillips.[7]
Dudieva would finally make her debut at UFC Fight Night 48, taking on the girl who replaced her in her last fight, Elizabeth Phillips.[8] She won via split decision.[9]
Dudieva's next fight was against the first woman to win The Ultimate Fighter, Julianna Peña.[10] She lost via TKO in round one.[11]
Upon her Twitter page Dudieva announced that she would take some time off due to her becoming pregnant.[12] Dudieva returned after a year away and lost to Marion Reneau after which she was let go from the UFC.[13]
In 2017, Dudieva signed with Invicta FC and made her debut in a headline bout against Mara Romero Borella on July 15, 2017, at Invicta FC 24: Dudieva vs. Borella.[14] She lost the fight via split decision.[15]
Dudieva faced Vanessa Porto at Invicta FC 26: Maia vs. Niedwiedz[16] She lost the fight via technical knock out on round three.[17]
Dudieva faced Christina Marks on March 24, 2018, at Invicta FC 28: Morandin vs. Jandiroba. Dudieva won the fight via second-round TKO.[18] In 2019, Dudieva lost a split decision to Karina Rodriguez and then entered the second Phoenix Rising tournament where she lost a decision to Daiana Torquato.
Dudieva was scheduled to face Daiana Torquato at Invicta FC 46 on March 9, 2022.[19] However, after the main even fighter withdrew from the bout four days before the event, Torquato was promoted to the main event tite bout. Dudieva was instead scheduled against Denise Gomes.[20] She lost the bout in the third round due to technical knockout by knees and punches.[21]
