Still searching for first UFC win
StrawweightUFC
April 27, 2024
Mann lost to Ketlen Souza via unanimous decision (27-30, 27-30, 27-30) at UFC on ESPN 55 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Mann was competitive in a unanimous decision defeat to Josefine Knutsson in her UFC debut last September, and although she looked slightly better against Souza, it still wasn't enough to steal a round on the scorecards. Mann is okay when things are at distance and there's not a lot going on, but once her opposition pushes the pace and makes things a bit dirty, she's done. The UFC typically gives most fighters three bouts before cutting bait, but Mann also suffered a lose on Dana White's Contender Series in September 2022, so it wouldn't be the least but surprising if the company decides to move on after these two setbacks.

Fighting relative newcomer
StrawweightUFC
March 21, 2024
Mann is scheduled to compete against Ketlen Souza in a strawweight fight at UFC Vegas 91 on April 27, per Nolan King of MMAJunkie.com.
ANALYSIS
Despite looking lost in her debut UFC fight, Mann has a second opportunity to compete in the promotion, this time against another relative newcomer. Souza was unimpressive in her relatively recent UFC debut as well, submitting to Karine Silva in less than two minutes.
Not competitive in UFC debut
StrawweightUFC
September 16, 2023
Mann lost to Josefine Knutsson via unanimous decision (24-30, 25-30, 27-30) at Noche UFC on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Hopelessly outclassed from start to finish, Mann, who entered as a +525 underdog, did exceptionally well to go the distance. She was mere seconds away from being stopped via ground-and-pound at the end of Round 2 before being saved by the bell. It might be a while before we see as lopsided a 15-minute brawl as we got here. The 30-year-old Mann fought on Dana White's Contender Series back in September 2022, when she was knocked out by Bruna Brasil via head kick. She'll probably get another shot with the company, but it's far from guaranteed.
Will fight Knuttson

September 7, 2023
Mann will fight Josefine Knutsson at Noche UFC on Sept. 16, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nlreports.
ANALYSIS
Mann will have to make her UFC debut on very short notice with Iasmin Lucindo backing out due to an injury. Both Knuttson and Mann were both previously denied UFC contracts before this bout, so they will have plenty to prove.
