Tabatha Ricci’s record, in numbers

Tabatha Ricci’s official record is 12-5. Every figure on this page is counted instead from the 16 bouts MMA Hub holds a result for — 11 wins, 5 losses — because 1 bout from the official record is not in the history we hold.

The 11 wins break down as 2 by knockout, 3 by submission and 6 by decision — 5 of 11 inside the distance, a finish rate of 45%. Across all 16 bouts with a recorded finishing round, the average bout lasted 10 minutes 59 seconds.

Tabatha Ricci has been stopped once in the 16 bouts on file, by knockout — 6% of them. The last 2 bouts on file are both losses.

The 16 bouts MMA Hub holds a result for include no title fights and no main events. Five of them have come since July 2024.

Set against the 161 Women's Strawweight fighters MMA Hub holds eight or more bouts for, Tabatha Ricci has a finish rate above 37% of them, a record of avoiding stoppage above 70% of them and a two-year bout count above 98% of them. The comparison is made inside the division rather than across the whole roster, because how often a division finishes depends heavily on what it weighs.

Tabatha Ricci is listed at 5ft 1in with a reach of 61in, fights orthodox and is 31, born 21 February 1995.

These figures are recomputed from Tabatha Ricci’s bout history each time results are synced, so they follow the record rather than a fixed snapshot.
