Amanda “Amandinha” Oliveira de Lemos is a Brazilian professional mixed martial artist competing in the UFC’s women’s strawweight division. Born on May 22, 1987, in Belém, Pará, Brazil, Lemos is known for her powerful striking, aggressive boxing base, and well-rounded finishing ability. She has consistently been ranked among the top fighters in her weight class and has notable victories over several high-level opponents.
MMA Career
Lemos began her professional MMA career in 2014 after developing a strong boxing foundation. She earned her spot in the UFC and made her Octagon debut on July 16, 2017.

Fighting Style
Lemos is primarily a striker with an aggressive, pressure-oriented style rooted in boxing. She uses sharp combinations, powerful body shots, and effective movement to overwhelm opponents. Her striking power has produced numerous early-fight stoppages, and she also poses submission threats, thanks to solid Brazilian jiu-jitsu skills. Comfortable both standing and in scrambles, Lemos aims to dictate the pace and land decisive blows throughout multiple ranges.
