Before any mixed martial arts (MMA) bout begins, ring card girls herald the round’s beginning with their stunning good looks, and for good reason. They’re a rarely seen instance of beauty before a spectacle of violence that often turns bloody.
Some ring card girls have stood out more than others over the history of the sport, and without further ado, we’re going to rank the 10 best. Enjoy the show.
1. Brittney Palmer
What other name could top this list? Palmer has made a wildly successful career out of being the UFC’s top ring girl for some years now, mixing an almost-perfect blend of beauty and brains as a talented artist. But MMA fans aren’t at events to see art, they want to see fights and ring card girls work their magic. Palmer obviously provides the latter in a big way, and has parlayed that success into countless lucrative appearances in calendars and magazines. There’s not really any other woman who could top this list right now.
2. Natalie Lawrence
True, Lawrence may be out of the fight game at the current moment, but during her time with UK-based promotion Cage Warriors FC, there’s no doubt she ranked as one of the hottest ring girls to ever grace an MMA cage. She’s taken her career to the next level as a model in England, and that’s only all the more reason to include her high up on our list of hottest ring card girls of all-time. She deserves it.
3. Arianny Celeste
There’s no other name that still draws more attention and recognition (other than perhaps her longtime running mate Brittney Palmer) in the realm of MMA ring card girls. A well-rounded package of stunning beauty, Celeste has also made headlines as the subject of a Ronda Rousey tirade that many felt was unnecessary. Regardless, Celeste continues to captivate audiences the world around with her beauty, and that doesn’t appear to be coming to an end anytime soon.
4. Michelle Jeanpierre
This Canadian World Series of Fighting (WSOF) beauty stormed her way onto the MMA ring card scene in 2015, and for good reason. She may have the most toned and in-shape body on this list, and that’s saying a lot given her competition. Jeanpierre will be a ring card girl to watch for many years to come.
5. Summer Daniels
Breaking into the Top Five, stunner Daniels has most women on this list trumped in terms of experience. She used to carry cards for now-defunct promotions Strikeforce and EliteXC, and is now part of Bellator. Daniels has also appeared in world-famous magazine Hustler, signifying that her position as one of the hottest rings girls in MMA is a deserving one.
6. Jade Bryce
Another blonde bombshell on our list, Bellator ring girl Bryce was also a fixture on this list for several years. She’d most likely be higher if she didn’t leave the promotion in the midst of a pregnancy, but hey, she’s still undoubtedly one of the hottest women to ever grace an MMA cage, making her a deserving recipient of a spot on our list.
7. Mercedes Terrell
The first-ever Bellator ring card girl, Terrell is well known throughout California and the rest of the United States for her stunning good looks. She also models for Monster Energy drinks when she’s not working fight events, and the recognition she’s gained in her years with Bellator has her firmly entrenched as one of MMA’s hottest ring girls for quite awhile now.
8. Brooke Lynette
This Scottish Cage Warriors ring girl is undoubtedly one of the UK’s finest imports. The blonde bombshell has turned the heads of many throughout Europe. She also models lingerie and runs her own company, signifying that she’s a well-diversified beauty.
9. Park Si Hyun
Si Hyun makes her mark not only for Asia’s growing ONE Championship promotion, but also as a well-traveled model whose work has been seen all over the world. That doesn’t mean she isn’t a coveted ring girl, however, as she’s been with the promotion for three years now and has shown no signs of slowing down. The Asian MMA market is a growing one, and Si Hyun currently ranks as their top ring girl.
10. Jhenny Andrade
This Brazilian bombshell is a former magazine writer. Andrade is now on the other side of the media as the focus of most articles she finds herself in. You can watch her flaunt her considerable talents during most of the UFC’s many cards in fight-crazed Brazil, and she’s admittedly become a big fan of the sport herself. A welcome start to the Top 10 hottest ring card girls in MMA.
