Alexa Grasso VS Manon Fiorot

Alexa Grasso defeated Manon Fiorot by unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) in a flyweight title-eliminator bout at Noche UFC: Silva vs. Delgado on September 12, 2026. Grasso dictated the fight from the opening bell, damaging Fiorot's lead leg with kicks and pushing the pace across all three rounds. The turning point came late in Round 1 when Grasso landed a right hook that dropped Fiorot to the canvas, with Grasso taking top position for the final 30 seconds but unable to finish. Fiorot found her left hand and built combinations in Round 3, though her corner acknowledged between rounds that she was down 0-2 on the cards — too large a hole to climb out of. With the victory, Grasso moves to the front of the flyweight title-contender line; both fighters had been told the winner would be next in line for a championship shot.

Former UFC women's flyweight champion Alexa Grasso looks to rebuild her title case in front of her home Noche UFC crowd after back-to-back losses stalled her momentum, while Manon Fiorot arrives as the number-two ranked flyweight coming off a dominant rebound win after her own title fight defeat. The winner inserts themselves directly back into the title conversation in a stacked division where both women have already proven they belong.
