Though she is currently in the midst of a four-fight losing streak, Tecia Torres is still the number thirteen strawweight in the world, according to the UFC's official rankings.

'The Tiny Tornado' is a talented striker who has beaten some of the very best MMA has to offer over the years. Her biggest wins have come against stars like Michelle Waterson, Paige VanZant, and former titleholder, Rose Namajunas.

The 30-year-old also happens to be a member of one of UFC's most high-profile couples, alongside her partner and financé Raquel Pennington, who is also a ranked fighter.

Torres has faced many of the best fighters the strawweight division has to offer, and despite being relatively small for the weight class, has had a lot of big moments.
