FATIMA KLINE

The American strawweight Fatima Kline transitioned to the UFC in 2024 following a successful stint as a double champion in Cage Fury Fighting Championships. She initially built her reputation through an unblemished four-fight run within Invicta FC. Operating out of MK Muay Thai and Silver Fox BJJ, the fighter has secured high-profile victories against competitors like Angela Hill and Melissa Martinez. Her triumph over Martinez notably garnered a performance-based bonus, underscoring her technical progression before her current tenure in the global promotion.

Heading into this contest with a professional resume of 10-1, Kline enters the cage on a four-fight winning streak. Her most recent appearance occurred on July 18, 2026, when she defeated Tabatha Ricci by unanimous decision. Prior to that, she topped Angela Hill following consecutive technical knockout victories over Melissa Martinez and Victoria Dudakova. This string of successes follows her lone professional defeat, which came against Jasmine Jasudavicius in July 2024.
