Knees: Cat Zingano
Victories over the current and former UFC bantamweight champion — each of which owe a great deal to Zingano’s lethal knee strikes — have put her atop this category. Zingano made a tremendous splash in her debut with a TKO victory (via knees) over Miesha Tate, which earned Fight of the Night honors. After more than a year out of action due to a knee injury, Zingano came back and weathered an early storm against current champion Amanda Nunes and laid in more devastating knees on her way to a third-round TKO.
Speed: Joanna Jedrzejczyk
Joanna Jedrzejczyk is the queen of hitting without getting hit. She has landed 4.2 more significant strikes per minute than her opponents since joining the UFC — the best ratio in the company’s history. The strawweight champion’s strike advantage in her four title defenses each rank in the top five all-time among UFC championship fights.
