Norma Dumont
Norma Dumont is one of the rising prospects in the UFC women's division. Professionally fighting since 2016, she made her MMA debut in the bantamweight division. After going back and forth, Dumont finally settled in the UFC women's featherweight division.
Before UFC, Dumont was undefeated (4-0) fighting in the regional Brazilian promotions.
Dumont made her UFC debut on February 29, 2020, at UFC Fight Night: Benavidez vs. Figueiredo. She fought against Megan Anderson, where she suffered her first-ever professional loss via KO in the first round.
However, Dumont immediately bounced back in her next fight and claimed a spectacular unanimous decision victory over Ashlee Evans-Smith. Her last fight was against Felicia Spencer on May 22, 2021, where she secured a hard-earned split decision victory.
