Dakota Ditcheva is a rising star in the Professional Fighters League (PFL). Recently, she captivated the MMA community with a viral weigh-in clip. The weigh-in was for PFL Europe 4, where she will face Valentina Scatizzi. The undefeated Ditcheva is the daughter of former kickboxing champion Lisa Howarth.
The clip gained traction on social media and among combat sports fans due to Ditcheva’s impressive physique and natural beauty. Ditcheva’s impact with the viral clip reflects the growing prominence of female fighters in MMA. Interestingly, she came into the weigh-in wearing a Manchester City jersey, as she is a lifelong fan of the football club.
Ditcheva signed with the PFL in 2022. She defeated all her opponents via finish. At PFL Europe 4, she will face Scatizzi in the final of the 2023 PFL Europe Women’s Flyweight Tournament. She defeated Malin Hermansson in the tournament’s quarterfinals at PFL Europe 1. A victory over Cornelia Holm in the tournament’s semifinals at PFL Europe 3 followed the quarterfinal victory.
Ditcheva is not the first fighter to become popular because of her beauty. Former UFC fighters Paige VanZant and Rachel Ostovich allegedly made more money in OnlyFans than by fighting. VanZant even talked about it in a recent interview.
Her comments met the ire of Sean Strickland on social media. Strickland’s comments caught the attention of former UFC flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko. Shevchenko and Strickland traded barbs on social media.
