Bec Rawlings
Bec Rawlings (born February 11, 1989) is an Australian retired mixed martial artist, bare-knuckle fighter, and media producer, best known for competing in the women's strawweight and flyweight divisions of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and Bellator MMA.[1][2] From Tasmania, Australia, Rawlings began training in mixed martial arts in 2010 after discovering the sport as a means of personal empowerment and self-defense, quickly transitioning to a professional career in 2011.[3][2] Over her MMA tenure, she compiled an overall professional record of 8 wins and 9 losses, with 1 knockout, 4 submissions, and 3 decisions among her victories.[2] Known for her aggressive, forward-pressure style and nickname "Rowdy," she stands at 5 feet 6 inches tall and fought primarily at 115 pounds in strawweight.[4][3] Rawlings rose to prominence in 2014 as a cast member on The Ultimate Fighter Season 20, the inaugural all-women's edition of the reality series, where she was eliminated in the opening round by Tecia Pennington via unanimous decision during the show and later debuted in the UFC with a unanimous decision loss to Heather Clark at The Ultimate Fighter 20 Finale.[3][5] Her UFC run from 2014 to 2018 yielded a 2-4 record, highlighted by unanimous decision wins over Seo Hee Ham at UFC Fight Night 85 and Ashlee Evans-Smith at UFC 223, alongside setbacks including a second-round knockout loss to Paige VanZant at UFC on Fox 19.[1][6] She was released from the UFC in 2018 following struggles with extreme weight cuts to 115 pounds that exacerbated a thyroid condition, impacting her performances.[7] Post-UFC, Rawlings ventured into bare-knuckle boxing with the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) in 2018, securing victories in her first three outings, including a first-round stoppage of Alma Garcia and the inaugural women's flyweight title against Britain Hart in her second fight, and establishing herself as a prominent figure in the emerging sport.[8][9] She then signed with Bellator MMA in 2019, debuting with a unanimous decision win over Elina Kallionidou at Bellator 240 in 2020, and has continued competing in BKFC with a unanimous decision win over Taylor Starling at BKFC KnuckleMania 5 in January 2025.[10][2][11] On a personal level, Rawlings is a mother of two sons, Zake and Enson, and reverted to her maiden name in 2014 after publicly sharing experiences of domestic abuse from her ex-husband, using her platform to advocate for survivors.[3][12][13] Since stepping away from active competition, she has pursued producing, contributing to the 2024 documentary Fight to Live, which explores themes of resilience in combat sports.[14]Early life
Childhood in Tasmania
Rebecca Rawlings, known professionally as Bec Rawlings, was born on February 11, 1989, in Launceston, Tasmania, Australia.[15] She grew up in the same city as the youngest of four children in a single-parent household, raised primarily by her mother, Mary Rawlings, who worked full-time as a nurse.[15][16] Her family life was marked by her mother's efforts to manage Rawlings' rebellious nature, with her older sister Jacqui later reflecting that without intervention, Rawlings might have faced serious trouble like incarceration.[16] Described by her mother as a "cheeky little thing" with a boyish demeanor, Rawlings resisted traditional feminine activities, preferring unconventional clothing and avoiding grooming routines like hair styling.[16] During her pre-teen years, Rawlings was an active participant in several non-combat sports, including basketball, gymnastics, and athletics, which helped channel her energy in Tasmania's outdoor-oriented environment.[8] These pursuits fostered her lifelong athleticism, though she often displayed a wild and trouble-seeking personality, leading to frequent school suspensions for her defiant attitude.[15] In her late teens and early twenties, Rawlings faced motivational challenges, including significant weight gain that diminished her athletic prowess and contributed to a period of self-destructive behavior. This struggle intensified after the birth of her first son, Zake, in 2008 from a previous relationship, prompting her to seek fitness activities such as kickboxing as a means to regain control and improve her health.[17][18] Her family's support in Launceston remained a constant influence during this transitional phase.[16]Introduction to combat sports
Bec Rawlings began her journey into combat sports in 2010 in Launceston, Tasmania, where she started training in mixed martial arts amid personal challenges stemming from a difficult childhood and domestic violence from her then-husband Dan Hyatt. This introduction to MMA served as both an escape and a means to build self-confidence, transforming her life by channeling aggression into disciplined training.[16][15] In early 2011, seeking expanded training opportunities, Rawlings relocated to Brisbane, Queensland, where she immersed herself in more intensive MMA preparation. Her early regimen emphasized foundational elements of the sport, including striking techniques inspired by Muay Thai and ground-based grappling skills, through local gyms and training camps that prepared her for competitive environments. She separated from her abusive husband in 2013.[19][3][15] By mid-2011, the empowerment and passion derived from her training motivated Rawlings to transition to professional MMA, viewing the sport as a path to personal growth and financial stability for her family, despite lacking a formal amateur fight record. This decision marked the culmination of her foundational phase, setting the stage for her entry into Australian promotions.[3]Mixed martial arts career
Australian promotions
Rawlings made her professional MMA debut on October 15, 2011, at BRACE 12 in Hobart, Tasmania, where she suffered a first-round knockout loss to Rhiannon Thompson via a head kick at 2:30.[20] She rebounded quickly in her next bout on February 18, 2012, at BRACE 14 in Canberra, Australian Capital Territory, submitting Sarah Morrison with an armbar in the second round at 1:30 to even her record at 1-1.[20] Building momentum, Rawlings secured three consecutive victories later in 2012 while based out of Brisbane, Queensland, training at Impact MMA. On April 14, she defeated Daniela Marjanovic via rear-naked choke in the first round at Australian Fighting Championships 3 in Sydney, New South Wales, improving to 2-1.[21][22] On June 9, she won a unanimous decision over Rachel Sheridan at Valor Fight 1 in Launceston, Tasmania, showcasing her endurance in a three-round bout to move to 3-1.[23][24] Her streak culminated on October 20 at Nitro MMA 7 in Brisbane, where she defeated Christina Tatnell via TKO (punches) at 0:37 of the first round, advancing her professional record to 4-1.[25][26] These domestic successes, marked by three submissions and a decision win, highlighted Rawlings' grappling prowess and adaptability in regional promotions across Australia. Her 4-1 record drew international attention, leading to a contract with Invicta Fighting Championships in November 2012 for a strawweight title opportunity in the United States.[26][27]Invicta Fighting Championships
Rawlings signed with Invicta Fighting Championships in 2012, marking her entry into a major international promotion as part of their inaugural strawweight division.[28] Her debut came on short notice for the vacant Invicta FC Strawweight Championship against Carla Esparza at Invicta FC 4 on January 5, 2013. Despite entering as an underdog, Rawlings went the full five rounds but lost via unanimous decision (49-46, 49-46, 48-47), with Esparza dominating through grappling control and effective striking.[29][2][30] In her follow-up bout at Invicta FC 5: Penne vs. Waterson on April 5, 2013, Rawlings rebounded with a first-round submission victory over Jasminka Cive. She secured an armbar at 3:30, showcasing her grappling prowess to improve her promotion record to 1-1.[2][31] Rawlings' final Invicta appearance was at Invicta FC 6 on July 13, 2013, where she faced Mizuki Inoue in a strawweight bout. Inoue outstruck Rawlings over three rounds, earning a unanimous decision victory (30-27 across all cards) and dropping Rawlings to 1-2 in the promotion.[2] Following the completion of her three-fight contract, Rawlings' Invicta deal was assigned to the UFC in December 2013 after the organization announced its women's strawweight division, effectively ending her tenure with the all-female promotion.[32]The Ultimate Fighter
Bec Rawlings was selected as one of the 16 fighters for the inaugural all-women's strawweight season of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 20, titled "A Champion Will Be Crowned," which premiered in September 2014. The selection process bypassed traditional tryouts, with Rawlings receiving a direct invitation from UFC President Dana White, an opportunity that left her in tears due to its unexpected nature and the chance to compete for the UFC's new strawweight title. At the time, she entered with a 5-3 professional record, primarily built through bouts in Invicta FC, where she had demonstrated resilience, including a five-round decision loss to future champion Carla Esparza on short notice.[3][33][30] During the draft, Rawlings was chosen seventh overall by coach Gilbert Melendez for Team Melendez, placing her on the opposite side of the rivalry against Team Pettis, led by Anthony Pettis. Her training camp emphasized striking and grappling drills tailored to strawweight dynamics, with sessions featuring assistance from specialists like Kron Gracie for jiu-jitsu techniques, though much of the focus was on maintaining team morale amid early setbacks. Rawlings appreciated the high-level environment, noting it allowed her to train alongside elite competitors and refine her stand-up game, which she credited with personal growth despite the intense schedule.[34][35][36] In the TUF house, Rawlings described a generally harmonious atmosphere among the cast, countering media portrayals of excessive drama or bullying—such as incidents involving Felice Herrig—as overstated, with most conflicts arising from competitive tensions rather than personal animosity. She bonded over shared humor with housemates like Angela Hill, whom she called the funniest, and fellow Australian Alex Chambers, exchanging lighthearted banter that eased homesickness; Rawlings often missed her two young children and listening to hip-hop music, using these outlets for emotional support during the six-week isolation. Anecdotes from the house included Chambers' casual demeanor and the group's collective cleanliness efforts, led by high-energy fighter Justine Kish, fostering a sense of camaraderie despite the pressure of intra-team matchups.[37][35][38] Rawlings' tournament run ended in the opening round on Episode 8, where she faced No. 3 seed Tecia Torres of Team Pettis in a two-round exhibition bout at the UFC Training Center in Las Vegas. The fight featured a cautious start with mutual striking probes, escalating into clinch exchanges and a notable hip toss by Rawlings in the second round, though Torres countered with low kicks and a late takedown to secure the edge; judges scored it unanimously for Torres (20-18 across rounds), eliminating Rawlings from advancement. Despite the loss, the exposure from TUF 20 significantly boosted her profile, leading to a UFC contract and a spot on the TUF 20 Finale card just weeks later, marking her entry into the promotion's roster.[39][40][41]Ultimate Fighting Championship
Rawlings earned a spot on the UFC's women's strawweight roster following her participation in The Ultimate Fighter Season 20, making her promotional debut against Heather Clark on December 12, 2014, at The Ultimate Fighter 20 Finale in Las Vegas, Nevada, where she lost via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) after three rounds in a grudge match stemming from TUF tensions.[2] She followed up with a first-round submission victory via rear-naked choke at 4:09 against Lisa Ellis on May 10, 2015, at UFC Fight Night 65 in Adelaide, Australia.[2] This win marked her as a promising addition to the division, showcasing her grappling prowess in a quick finish.[12] She secured another victory over Seo Hee Ham on March 19, 2016, at UFC Fight Night 85 in Brisbane, Australia, dominating the standup and earning a unanimous decision (30-27, 29-28, 29-28) after three rounds.[2] However, her momentum halted against Paige VanZant on August 27, 2016, at UFC on Fox 21 in Vancouver, Canada, where VanZant delivered a second-round knockout via head kick and follow-up punches just 17 seconds into the frame, highlighting Rawlings' vulnerability to striking exchanges.[2] This high-profile loss, broadcast on Fox, drew significant attention to her defensive lapses in the pocket. Rawlings dropped a unanimous decision (30-27 across the board) to Tecia Pennington on February 4, 2017, at UFC Fight Night 104 in Houston, Texas, in a bout marked by Pennington's superior footwork and volume striking over three rounds.[2] She remained at strawweight for her next fight against Jessica-Rose Clark on November 18, 2017, at UFC Fight Night 121 in Sydney, Australia, but fell via split decision (29-28, 28-29, 29-28), a closely contested matchup that underscored her resilience despite the judges' narrow verdict.[2] Transitioning to flyweight to alleviate ongoing weight-cutting struggles, Rawlings faced Ashlee Evans-Smith on April 7, 2018, at UFC 223 in Brooklyn, New York, where she was outgrappled and outworked en route to a unanimous decision loss (30-27, 30-27, 30-27).[2] These weight class shifts were later attributed by Rawlings to severe health impacts, including a thyroid condition exacerbated by extreme cuts. Compiling a 2-5 record in the UFC, Rawlings was released from the promotion in May 2018 following her four-fight skid, amid her expressed regrets over the physical toll of competition.[42] Her tenure featured gritty performances but was hampered by injuries, such as a 2015 femoral stress fracture that sidelined her briefly, and a pattern of decisions against top-tier opponents.[43]Bellator MMA
In June 2019, following her release from the Ultimate Fighting Championship and a successful stint in bare-knuckle boxing, Bec Rawlings signed a multi-fight contract with Bellator MMA to resume her mixed martial arts career in the flyweight division.[44][45] Rawlings made her promotional debut at Bellator 231 on October 25, 2019, in Uncasville, Connecticut, where she faced Ilara Joanne.[31] Joanne defeated Rawlings via submission (kneebar) at 3:35 of the second round, marking Rawlings' first fight under Bellator rules.[2] Rawlings rebounded in her second appearance at Bellator 240 on February 22, 2020, in Dublin, Ireland, earning a unanimous decision victory over Elina Kallionidou (30-27 on all three judges' scorecards) in a three-round bout.[31][46] Rawlings concluded her Bellator tenure with a 1-1 record, as no further bouts materialized after her win over Kallionidou.[47] Her contract with the promotion expired amid the global COVID-19 pandemic, which complicated travel and scheduling, prompting her to shift focus back to bare-knuckle boxing rather than pursuing additional MMA opportunities.[48] This marked the effective end of her major-promotion MMA career, with Rawlings expressing satisfaction in exploring other combat disciplines post-Bellator.[49]Post-MMA combat careers
Bare-knuckle boxing
Bec Rawlings made her professional bare-knuckle boxing debut at Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) 1 on June 2, 2018, in Cancun, Mexico, where she defeated Alma Garcia by technical knockout due to a doctor's stoppage in the second round. This victory earned her the inaugural Police Gazette Women's Featherweight World Championship, marking her as the first woman to claim a sanctioned bare-knuckle title in modern combat sports history.[50][51] Rawlings successfully defended her featherweight title twice in her initial run with BKFC. On August 25, 2018, at BKFC 2 in Biloxi, Mississippi, she retained the belt against Britain Hart via split decision after a competitive five-round bout characterized by intense exchanges and significant swelling. She followed this with another defense on February 2, 2019, at BKFC 4 in Los Angeles, California, defeating Cecilia Ulloa Flores by unanimous decision (50-45, 48-47, 49-46), despite losing a tooth during the fight. These early successes established Rawlings as a pioneer in women's bare-knuckle boxing, showcasing her resilience in a format that emphasized raw striking power and endurance without gloves.[52][53] Following her third win, Rawlings entered a hiatus from BKFC competition lasting until 2022, attributed to a combination of scheduling issues, injuries from canceled bouts, and personal commitments outside the sport. This period of inactivity saw her professional bare-knuckle record stand at 3-0.[54] Rawlings resumed her BKFC career at BKFC 26 on June 24, 2022, in Hollywood, California, facing Hart in a highly anticipated rematch. Hart won by unanimous decision (49-46 across all cards), handing Rawlings her first bare-knuckle defeat. Rawlings then moved to the flyweight division and challenged for the BKFC Flyweight Championship against defending champion Christine Ferea at BKFC 41 on April 29, 2023, in Las Vegas, Nevada, but lost by second-round technical knockout via doctor's stoppage due to cuts. In a rematch at BKFC 56 on December 2, 2023, also in Las Vegas, Ferea retained the title with another unanimous decision victory (50-45, 50-45, 50-45). These losses brought Rawlings' record to 3-3.[55][56][57] After another extended break from late 2023 to early 2025, during which Rawlings focused on recovery and personal endeavors, she returned at BKFC KnuckleMania V on January 25, 2025, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In a five-round flyweight bout against Taylor Starling, Rawlings dominated with superior volume and pressure, securing a unanimous decision win (50-44, 50-44, 49-45) and improving her record to 4-3. She was subsequently scheduled to face Jade Masson-Wong at the canceled BKFC 79 event in July 2025 in Perth, Australia, which was scrapped due to regulatory issues with Western Australia's combat sports commission.[11][58] Transitioning from mixed martial arts to bare-knuckle boxing required Rawlings to adapt her grappling-heavy background to a pure stand-up discipline, emphasizing clinch work, head movement to avoid cuts, and shorter-range punching without the protection of gloves or the option for takedowns. Competing primarily at featherweight early on before shifting to flyweight, she noted the format's demand for immediate aggression and pain tolerance, describing it as a sport that amplified her striker's instincts while exposing vulnerabilities to facial damage not as prevalent in MMA.[59]Professional boxing
Following her successful tenure in mixed martial arts and bare-knuckle boxing, Bec Rawlings-Rodriguez entered professional gloved boxing in late 2022, seeking to expand her combat sports expertise under the guidance of her husband, professional boxer Adrian Rodriguez.[60] Rawlings-Rodriguez made her professional boxing debut on December 3, 2022, at the Star Power event held at The Star Gold Coast Hotel and Casino in Queensland, Australia, facing Natasha Kurene in a five-round featherweight bout promoted by the ACE Boxing Group. Kurene, an experienced amateur boxer with a 12-2 record, also debuted professionally in the matchup. The fight went the full distance, with Rawlings-Rodriguez losing by unanimous decision, as scored by the judges.[60][61][62] This remains Rawlings-Rodriguez's only professional boxing bout to date, after which she shifted her focus back to bare-knuckle competitions.[62]Personal life
Family and relationships
Bec Rawlings was previously married to mixed martial artist Dan Hyatt, whom she met in 2010.[63] The couple wed approximately 15 months later and relocated from Rawlings' hometown of Launceston, Tasmania, to Brisbane, Queensland, to pursue opportunities in the sport.[64] Their marriage ended in separation in 2013 after Rawlings fled the relationship amid allegations of physical and emotional abuse, prioritizing the safety of her children, with the divorce finalized in 2014.[63][15] Rawlings and Hyatt share two sons: Zake, born in 2008, and Enson, born in 2011.[17][15][65] Following the divorce, she raised the boys as a single mother in Brisbane, often crediting her role as a parent with providing motivation and resilience amid the demands of her combat sports career.[66] After her divorce, Rawlings entered a relationship with Australian mixed martial artist Ben Wall, which ended prior to 2018. She began a partnership with professional boxer Adrian Rodriguez that year.[67] The couple married in September 2021 and continue to reside in Brisbane, where Rodriguez coaches Rawlings in her training; she uses the hyphenated surname Rawlings-Rodriguez in some contexts.[68][69][60]Advocacy and media presence
Rawlings first garnered widespread media attention through her appearance on the twentieth season of The Ultimate Fighter in 2014, where she competed as one of the inaugural female strawweight contestants, showcasing her fighting skills and personality to a global audience on the reality competition series.[70] Adopting the nickname "Rowdy" to reflect her bold and energetic demeanor, Rawlings has cultivated a prominent social media presence, engaging fans with personal insights, training footage, and commentary on combat sports, which has helped establish her as a vocal figure in the industry.[15] She pioneered the use of platforms like OnlyFans among combat athletes starting in 2020, crediting it with providing financial independence during the COVID-19 pandemic and inspiring dozens of other fighters to diversify their income streams beyond traditional fight purses.[71] Rawlings frequently participates in post-fight interviews, offering candid reflections on her performances and the challenges of professional fighting, such as in her discussions following Bellator and BKFC bouts.[72] As a survivor of domestic abuse, Rawlings advocates for victims through the 2024 documentary Fight to Live, which chronicles her escape from a violent marriage and emphasizes regaining self-worth amid family challenges.[73][16] Drawing from these experiences, she promotes mental health awareness, highlighting self-love as a key to overcoming adversity and encouraging open conversations about emotional resilience in combat sports.[74] In 2025, Rawlings spoke out on fair pay in UFC contracts during an ABC News investigation, revealing that she earned little money at the peak of her career despite competing at the highest level, thereby spotlighting broader inequities for athletes in the promotion.[75] Her trailblazing role in women's MMA has further positioned her as a promoter of gender equity in the sport, inspiring Australian female fighters to pursue professional opportunities.[76]Championships and accomplishments
Mixed martial arts achievements
Bec Rawlings did not win any major championships in mixed martial arts but gained significant recognition through her participation in The Ultimate Fighter Season 20: A Champion Will Be Crowned in 2014, where she competed as one of the sixteen strawweight fighters vying for a UFC contract.[3] Representing Team Melendez under coach Gilbert Melendez, Rawlings lost to Tecia Pennington by unanimous decision in the opening round bout on July 28, 2014, eliminating her from further advancement in the tournament.[2] She then competed at The Ultimate Fighter 20 Finale against Heather Clark, losing via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28). This appearance marked a pivotal moment in her career, elevating her profile internationally as one of Australia's emerging female fighters in the strawweight division.[30] Rawlings achieved notable victories against established opponents during her time in major promotions. In her UFC debut at The Ultimate Fighter 20 Finale on December 12, 2014, she lost to Heather Clark via unanimous decision. In her second UFC bout at UFC Fight Night 65: Miocic vs. Hunt on May 10, 2015, she defeated Lisa Ellis via submission (rear-naked choke) in round 1 at 4:09.[77] Later, on March 19, 2016, at UFC Fight Night 85: Hunt vs. Mir, she won a unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 29-28) over Seo Hee Ham, a former Invicta FC title challenger ranked in the top 10 of women's strawweight divisions at the time.[2] Returning to MMA after a hiatus, Rawlings secured a unanimous decision victory (30-27, 30-27, 29-28) over Elina Kallionidou at Bellator 240 on February 22, 2020, extending her professional record.[47] Throughout her MMA career, Rawlings compiled an overall professional record of 8 wins and 9 losses (as of November 2025), competing primarily in the strawweight and flyweight divisions across promotions like the UFC and Bellator.[78] Her efforts contributed to the growth of women's MMA in Australia, where she helped challenge stigmas around female participation in combat sports and inspired a new generation of fighters in the region by competing at the highest levels internationally.[74]Bare-knuckle boxing titles
Bec Rawlings captured the inaugural Police Gazette Women’s Featherweight World Championship on June 2, 2018, at Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) 1 in Casper, Wyoming, defeating Alma Garcia by technical knockout due to a doctor's stoppage at 2:00 of the second round.[79][80] She made her first successful defense of the title on August 25, 2018, at BKFC 2 in Biloxi, Mississippi, edging out Britain Hart via split decision (48-47, 47-48, 48-47) after five rounds.[52][8] Rawlings defended the championship for a second time on February 2, 2019, at BKFC 4 in Cancún, Mexico, securing a unanimous decision victory over Cecilia Ulloa Flores (50-45, 48-47, 49-45).[81][8] Her reign as Police Gazette champion lasted approximately eight months, marked by two defenses that solidified her status as a trailblazer in the nascent sport of professional women's bare-knuckle boxing, drawing increased attention to female competitors in BKFC.[15][82] Rawlings vacated the title later in 2019 upon signing with Bellator MMA. She has not held any other major bare-knuckle championships since but continued competing in BKFC, compiling a 4-3 record as of November 2025, highlighted by a unanimous decision win over Taylor Starling on January 25, 2025, at BKFC KnuckleMania 5.[11][8]Professional records

Mixed martial arts exhibition record
Bec Rawlings competed in a single exhibition bout during her participation in the 2014 season of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF 20), the UFC's all-female strawweight tournament to crown the division's inaugural champion. Exhibition matches from the show, filmed in the TUF house, are non-professional and do not contribute to a fighter's official MMA record.[83] These bouts served to eliminate competitors and determine advancement in the single-elimination bracket. Rawlings, seeded eighth and representing Team Melendez, faced third-seeded Tecia Torres (who had switched to Team Pettis after an injury replacement) in the quarterfinals. The two-round fight aired as part of Episode 8 on November 12, 2014, with Torres securing the victory via unanimous decision after a competitive striking and grappling exchange.[83] No additional exhibition fights for Rawlings are documented.| Result | Opponent | Method | Event | Date | Round | Time | Location | Notes |
