Natalia Silva Becomes Fourth Undisputed Women’s Flyweight Champion With Win Over Wang Cong at UFC 332

Natalia Silva secured the vacant women's flyweight championship at UFC 332 by defeating Wang Cong via a unanimous decision, with the judges scoring the contest 48-47, 48-47, and 49-46 in favor of the Brazilian. Silva utilized her exceptional speed, accurate kicking game, and distance management to frustrate her opponent throughout the twenty-five minute bout, extending her current winning streak to fifteen victories and her promotional run to nine consecutive wins.

Despite a late push from Cong that included a hard left hook in the final round, Silva's early success—highlighted by a left hook that caused swelling and a head kick knockdown in the second round—proved decisive. The championship belt had previously been vacated by Valentina Shevchenko due to a shoulder and back injury, allowing Silva to claim her place as the fourth undisputed champion in the division's history.
