Ewa Brodnicka (born 7 June 1984) is a Polish former professional boxer and mixed martial artist. During her boxing career she held the WBO female junior-lightweight World title and was European female lightweight champion.
Professional boxing career
A professional boxer since 2013, Brodnicka became European female lightweight champion on 19 December 2015, beating Belgium's Elfi Philips for the vacant belt by unanimous decision.
On 13 May 2017, she won the interim WBO female junior-lightweight World title thanks to a unanimous decision success over Irma Adler from Bosnia.
Upgraded to full champion status, Brodnicka made five successful defences of her title during the next three years.
In her first fight outside of her native Poland, Brodnicka was due to defend her title against Mikaela Mayer at the MGM Grand Las Vegas, USA, on 31 October 2020 but was stripped of the belt prior to the fight after failing to make the 130-pound weight limit. She weighed 130.9 pounds on the first try, coming back to the scales an hour later but, despite cutting off her hair-braids and stripping down, she could not get any lower than 130.1 pounds. The bout went ahead with only Mayer able to claim the title, which she did with a unanimous decision victory.
Mixed martial arts career
Brodnicka made her mixed martial arts (MMA) debut on 28 August 2021 losing to YouTube personality Aniela "Lil Masti" Bogusz by stoppage due to punches in round three of the contest staged by High League at the Ergo Arena in Gdańsk, Poland. After the fight Brodnicka said a knee injury sustained three weeks earlier had hampered her performance.
At the same venue on 4 June 2022, Brodnicka got her first MMA win overcoming Kamila Wybrańczyk by unanimous decision.
She switched promotions to FAME for her next fight on 20 May 2023, when she secured a unanimous decision victory over Marta Linkiewicz at the Atlas Arena in Łódź, Poland.
