Profile

Overview

Nora Cornolle has beaten Joselyne Edwards by decision and lost to her by submission, and that pair of fights sums up a 4-3 UFC run at women's bantamweight. She is 10-4-0 as a professional across all promotions. She is not a champion.

Both of her UFC finishes came in round two, none in round one. Her other two wins went the distance.

UFC Career

Cornolle debuted in September 2023 with a three-round unanimous decision over Joselyne Edwards. In April 2024 she stopped Melissa Mullins by KO/TKO at 3:06 of round two. That made two straight UFC wins.

The streak ended in September 2024 with a split-decision loss to Jacqueline Cavalcanti. She answered at UFC 314 in April 2025, submitting Hailey Cowan at 1:52 of round two.

Then came two straight losses. Karol Rosa took a unanimous decision in August 2025, and Edwards got her back in February 2026 with a round-two submission at 2:44. It's the only time Cornolle has been finished in the UFC.

She rebounded in September 2026 with a unanimous decision over Klaudia Syguła, and the win leaves her carrying a one-fight streak. Her longest UFC streak is two.

Fighting Style

Cornolle is a selective striker who is hard to hit. She throws and lands less often than most, but she takes far less damage in return and connects with an excellent share of what she does throw. Her defense is above average too.

She does little on the ground. She rarely shoots for takedowns and doesn't hunt for submissions much, and her takedown defense is about what you'd expect from a typical UFC fighter.

Her finishes show she can end fights despite the low volume. Two of her four UFC wins came inside the distance, a knockout and a submission, and both arrived in the second round. The other two wins went to the scorecards.
