UFC Saudi Arabia was held on Saturday, February 1, 2025 at the Saudi Arabia Riyado ANB Arena and broadcast live on ESPN+. This event was historical because the # 12-ranked Jasmine Jasas Davishius broke Mai Lab Eno Sylva in the first UFC woman’s battle in Saudi Arabia (30-27, 30-27, 30-27). We featured a fly -class game for a woman.
JASUDAVICIUS showed her balanced skill set from the beginning to the end to determine her pressure, crisp strike, and effective wrestling. She consistently exceeded Bueno Silva with a clinch, neutralized Brazil’s obedience threat using a powerful top control on the ground. Bueno Silva had the moment of attack, but she had a hard time finding the rhythm because Jas Davishius controlled all three rounds. The dominant performance has no doubt, and Jas Davitius has secured four consecutive victories.
With this victory, JASUDAVICIUS has improved records to 13-3 and continued to be impressive in the UFC flyweight category. After going 3-0 in 2024, this is her first battle in 2025, and she is now building a serious momentum in four races. With her latest victory in the 12th place that has already appeared in this battle, she can invade the top 10 and take on higher rank competition in the next match.
For Mayra Bueno Silva, the battle marked her to return to her flyweight after running on Bantamweight. Despite the flash of her grappling ability, she had a hard time imposing her game on Jas Davitius’s relentless pressure. She now reorganizes and aims to run another for 125 pounds.
This match was not only the impact of the department, but also a revolutionary moment in the history of UFC. Jas Davitius and Buenosylva have become the first women who competed in UFC octagon in Saudi Arabia. At that moment, I told a step that was important for women’s MMAs at the world stage.
With this victory, Jasudavicius has all eyes on her, as she strengthens her position as one of the competitors in the department and continues to climb to the top of the flyweight ranking.
