Erin Blanchfield

Overview

Eight UFC wins, four of them submissions, and not a single knockout in the column. Erin Blanchfield's UFC record is 8-2, and both losses went to the scorecards.

"Cold Blooded" competes at Women's Flyweight, inside a 14-3 professional record across all promotions. Half of her UFC wins ended early, all by submission. Her longest win streak is six fights, and she carries a one-fight losing streak into her next fight after a decision loss to Jasmine Jasudavicius.

A finisher with a grappler's résumé, and two defeats that never ended early.

UFC Career

Blanchfield debuted on September 17, 2021, with a unanimous decision over Sarah Alpar at a Fight Night headlined by Smith vs. Spann. She followed with another three-round decision, over Miranda Maverick at UFC 269.

The finishes came next. JJ Aldrich was submitted in round 2 (2:38) in June 2022, and Molly McCann in round 1 (3:37) at UFC 281. In February 2023 she headlined a Fight Night against Jessica Andrade, one of the elite opponents of her career, and submitted her in round 2 at 1:37. That is her only win over an elite opponent so far. A unanimous decision over Taila Santos, a strong opponent, in August 2023 made it six straight UFC wins.

The streak ended in March 2024 in another main event. Manon Fiorot, also an elite opponent, took a five-round unanimous decision. It was Blanchfield's first UFC loss, and it came in a five-round fight.

She followed it with a five-round unanimous decision over Rose Namajunas in November 2024, then submitted Tracy Cortez in round 2 (4:44) at UFC 322 in November 2025. A unanimous decision loss to Jasmine Jasudavicius in October 2026 is the most recent result.

Two losses, both on the scorecards. Neither ended early.

Fighting Style

Erin Blanchfield is a grappler who is very hard to take down. She puts opponents on the mat more than most and hunts for submissions once she gets there.

She is also a busy striker who is hard to hit. She lands at a high volume, and her defense keeps her from taking much in return. What she absorbs and how accurate she is both sit around the UFC average.

Her finishing pattern is clear. All four of her UFC finishes are submissions: one in round 1 and three in round 2. She has no knockouts or technical knockouts on her UFC record. The other four wins went the distance, and so did both losses.
