Marion Reneau

Marion Reneau is an American professional mixed martial artist currently competing as a Bantamweight in the Ultimate Fighting Championships. Reneau began her career in 2010 after winning several professional fights. Reneau wanted to join The Ultimate Fight 18 however was told that her age was a worrying factor, and therefore she had to win more fights because they would sign her. This led Reneau to pursue fights with a reinvigorated passion, having a submission victory over Maureen Riordan at Resurrection Alliance 16 that eventually convinced UFC to sign her.

Reneau would then go on to be a powerhouse in mixed martial arts; facing Jéssica Andrade at UFC Fight Night 61 and winning the fight via round submission, earning a Performance of the Night Bonus, as well as against Talita Bernardo due to a TKO. Reneau is also multi-talented, holding a degree in sports medicine as well as being a high school teacher. Reneau has used this skill in teaching to open up her own training gym in MMA, alongside her husband, and offers world class training for individuals and families, with a focus on hard work, humility and that building character is better than any belt or medal.. Reneau is most recently focusing on her fight facing Macy Chiasson at UFC Fight Night 186 and is currently number 9 in the UFC women’s bantamweight rankings.
