Carli Judice

Overview

Four straight UFC wins, three of them knockouts, and both of her losses came on the scorecards.

Carli "Crispy" Judice is a Lafayette, Louisiana native who fights out of Headkicks MMA at women's flyweight. Her UFC record is 4-1. Her professional record across all promotions is 7-2. Two of her UFC wins ended in the first round. The third stoppage came in the third.

She enters her next fight on that four-fight run. The sample is small, but nothing in it points to a fighter who needs the judges.

UFC Career

The road started at Dana White's Contender Series 7.8, where she lost a split decision to Ernesta Kareckaite. That fight is part of her professional record, not her UFC record. Her UFC debut came in June 2024 at UFC Fight Night: Perez vs Taira, and it was another split decision loss, this time to Gabriella Fernandes.

Then the run started. In March 2025 she stopped Yuneisy Duben in 1:40 of the first round. At UFC 318 that July, she finished Nicolle Caliari at 1:30 of round three. In February 2026 she went the distance with Juliana Miller and took a unanimous decision. In August 2026 she needed just 1:39 to knock out Jeisla Chaves.

Four wins, three knockouts, none against an opponent our model rates as elite. Her only UFC loss is a split decision.

Fighting Style

Carli Judice is a busy striker who lands more than most fighters in the UFC. Her accuracy and defense both grade out well, yet she also takes more punishment than most, so her fights tend to be exchanges rather than clean one-sided work.

Grappling is not part of her game. She rarely shoots for takedowns and hunts for submissions far less than the typical fighter. She is hard to take down, which makes it difficult for opponents who want to wrestle.

Her finishes back that up: all three of her UFC stoppage wins came by knockout, none by submission. Two of those came in the first round, and the third came in round three.
