Christmas 2024 will be forever marked in the lives of Alice PereiraAt 19, the promising Brazilian fighter received the gift of a lifetime: a contract with the UFC. The news arrived on December 24th and was announced by the organization through its social media, where the exciting moment was shared with fans. At 19, she became the youngest fighter to sign a contract with Dana White's company.
Alice's journey in MMA is fast, but full of achievements. She debuted in the sport in 2023 and, in just over a year, accumulated a perfect record: six wins in six fights, five of which were submitted or knocked out. This led the young woman to show her ambition to reach the UFC at the end of 2024. Even after her last victory, she used social media to make a bold request: she wanted a chance at the biggest MMA organization in the world.
