Joanne Wood (née Calderwood; born 23 December 1985) is a Scottish retired professional mixed martial artist and former Muay Thai champion who competed in the Women's Flyweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship.

Biography

Wood first started Muay Thai training by accident. When she was 13, her younger brother was meant to go to a class with his friend, who did not turn up. Her mother asked her to go to keep him company. She fell in love with it and begged her mother to allow her to give up competitive swimming to do the two classes each week. This led to doing two sessions a day and spending all of her time training on her own between these sessions.[5]

She worked several jobs growing up, including one after secondary school that involved her helping children and people who were on ventilation machines, monitoring them in the hospital and assisting them when needed. But those were 12-hour shifts, which drained energy and made training difficult. She eventually found another gym, left that job to work at the gym and made a significant commitment to her training. "I had to make a decision if I wanted to keep fighting or stay in my job," she said. "I wanted to keep fighting."[6]

Kickboxing

Wood started in Muay Thai in 2000 and was named STBA Fighter of the year in 2009.[7] She was the current ISKA World Flyweight Champion, IKF European Flyweight Champion, the WKL European Flyweight Champion, and the WBC UK Bantamweight Champion, and was ranked #2 in the world by the World Professional Muaythai Federation. Her final Muay Thai fight was in September 2012 and she had earned a record of 19-2-0.[8]

Mixed martial arts career

Wood is Scotland's first professional female mixed martial artist.[9] She won her debut bout against Noellie Molina via TKO from punches in the first round.[10]

She next fought at India's Super Fight League's third event, SFL 3, against Lena Ovchynnikova.[11] She won the fight via unanimous decision.[12]

Wood then competed at On Top 5, defeating Ainara Mota via TKO from punches.[13]

Invicta Fighting Championships and Cage Warriors Fighting Championships

She next competed at Invicta Fighting Championships' third event, Invicta FC 3: Penne vs. Sugiyama, against Ashley Cummins on 6 October 2012.[14] Wood won the fight via knockout from a knee to the body in the first round.[15] She was awarded a Knockout of the Night bonus for the victory.[16]

Wood was scheduled to face Bec Hyatt at Invicta FC 4: Esparza vs. Hyatt on 5 January 2013 in Kansas City.[17] However, Hyatt was moved to the main event and Wood was instead matched up against Livia von Plettenberg.[18] Wood won the fight via unanimous decision.[19][20] This was Wood's debut on the main card of an Invicta FC event.[citation needed]
