Ariane Lipski lives up to her name, “The Violence Queen”. The 23-year-old is one of the most talented and dominant flyweights in the world. She represents the Rasthai Temple out of Curitiba, Parana Brazil. She believes she can beat anyone, and it’s hard to argue that after watching her fight. She trains as hard as she fights, with the same level of intensity and grit. She belongs in the same conversation as Joanna Jedrzejczyk, Amanda Nunes, Rose Namajunas and other top female MMA fighters.
Ariane has one goal in mind, to the best in the world. She spoke with mmafighting.com earlier this year and said:
It’s not my dream to go to the UFC, my dream is to become the best in the world. The UFC is the biggest promotion, and we want to go to the UFC to show I’m the best, not because I have this dream to sign with them. When the opportunity comes, I’ll go there and do my job, but it’s not my dream to enter the UFC at any cost
With her work ethic, determination and domination in the cage, that is an attainable goal. She’s real, answers questions in a smart manner and doesn’t beat around the bush. She’s not just smart in the cage with a ridiculously high fight IQ, but she’s analytical, open and honest.
Ariane has a complete skill set specializing in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai. She currently fights for KSW which is an awesome MMA promotion. Check them out Here
KSW has incredible talent and puts on great shows. All of their champions are fantastic and would make noise in any promotion, especially Ariane.
Using the term “well rounded” Is hard to avoid, and is overused but that’s a great way to describe Ariane. Currently rocking an eight-fight win streak, five of which are victory by KO/TKO, two by submission and one by decision. She is also 4-0 in the KSW. She won the title on 27 May 2017 against Diana Belbita in spectacular fashion; armbar submission near the end of round one, and speaking of KSW, she hasn’t gone beyond round two since fighting for the promotion.
Ariane is an animal in the cage. She strikes with pinpoint accuracy, has outstanding takedown offense and defense, she can submit you just as fast as she can ground and pound you to a KO. Killer instinct is another one of those terms that’s thrown around, but she has it. She also has a natural fighting ability, which can only get you so far, it’s her ability to learn, and to apply her skillset that sets her apart.
Knowing the tools you have is one thing, knowing how to use the tools you have is another. She stands in the cage as the predator, the one in charge. It’s her territory. With fast hands that bring serious power, she can catch her opponent and wear them down. She will go high and low to find where the vulnerabilities lie in her opponent’s game. A fighter can’t protect every part of their body, Ariane exploits that.
It’s her fight IQ that keeps her in the same conversations as the above-mentioned fighters. A smart fighter is a fighter that stays in the game a long time and flourishes. Top that off with the rare mix of speed and power and you have a dangerous fighter.
Below is a nice highlight video from the KSW website. There will be so much more coverage of Ariane as she continues to dominate. We hope you enjoyed this feature, and hope that it enlightens you in the fact that there is so much MMA in the world today. Check out Ariane Lipski and see for yourself what she’s all about.
