YAN XIAONAN

Hailing from Shenyang, China, orthodox strawweight competitor Yan Xiaonan launched her professional MMA career in 2009. Known as "Fury," she relies on her Sanda background to provide adaptable striking inside the Octagon. Training with China Top Team, Extreme Sanda, and Team Alpha Male, the Chinese fighter has secured high-profile victories over Carla Esparza and Jéssica Andrade.

Yan carries a professional record of 20-5 with one no contest into her June 2026 appearance. Her recent form includes decision wins over Mackenzie Dern and Tabatha Ricci, alongside a knockout of Jéssica Andrade. However, she also suffered decision defeats against Zhang Weili and, most recently in April 2025, Virna Jandiroba.
