On Saturday, September 14, fight fans gathered at the Frost Bank Center for Noche UFC, headlined by Diego Lopes vs. Jean Silva. But before fists flew, Cortez grabbed attention with a chic and confident entrance.
Rocking a sleek white dress, she showed off a softer, more glamorous side compared to her usual fight gear — and people couldn’t stop talking about it.

“Love you girl.” Within hours, the photos spread across Twitter, Instagram, and MMA fan pages, with fans hyping her style as much as her skills.

The Arizona-born fighter later posted pictures of her evening on Instagram, where fans filled the comments section with admiration.
Many noted how effortlessly Cortez transitioned from her battle-ready persona to a red-carpet presence.
Her caption alongside Nina-Marie Daniele showcased her fun, personable side and added to the excitement around the night.
The event itself celebrated the growing reach of UFC among Hispanic communities, making Cortez’s presence even more meaningful given her Mexican-American roots.
Her stylish moment became one of the standout highlights from an evening filled with big personalities and big conversations.
Building momentum toward UFC 322 showdown
Of course, Cortez’s fight career is also heating up. Holding a 12–2 professional record, she bounced back strong after a loss to Rose Namajunas with a convincing decision win over Viviane Araujo at UFC 317 earlier this year.
Now, all eyes are on her rematch with Erin Blanchfield at UFC 322 in Madison Square Garden this November. Their first meeting in 2019 ended with Cortez taking a razor-thin split decision, and fans are hyped to see round two on the big stage.
