Germaine de Randamie has retired from MMA.
On Thursday, October 31, Randamie took to Instagram to announce that she is officially retiring from the sport of MMA. Randamie had asked UFC to have one more fight before the year was over, but she was told that all cards were booked for the rest of 2024.
With so many mixed feelings I’m sharing this message with you guys. I definitely didn’t plan or envisioned/dreamed it this way, but hey it is what it is sometimes. I begged the UFC for 1 more fight. But it had to be this year. I promised myself I would retire from fighting December 31st 2024.
Unfortunately the UFC told me all cards are fully booked. That’s why I decided that the time is now. I really wished I could have walked the walk one more time. But I guess it was not meant to be. To many people to thank personally so thank you all for being a part of my journey Thank you for all the amazing memories. I’m forever grateful for all of them. Like I always say “ DIE WITH MEMORIES, NOT DREAMS” The Ironlady has left the building ushhh.
Randamie made her debut for the UFC back in 2013. Throughout her history with the company, Randamie fought in ten fights, winning seven of them. Notably, Randamie notched a small reign with the UFC Women's Featherweight Championship back in 2017.
Fightful would like to send Randamie our best wishes as she moves forward with her post-MMA life.
