Son p\u00e8re \u00e9tait incarc\u00e9r\u00e9 avant m\u00eame qu&rsquo;elle voie le jour. Sa m\u00e8re, sans voiture ni appartement, portait la petite JJ sur son dos pour faire les courses \u00e0 pied dans les rues de Colorado. C&rsquo;est avec ce bagage-l\u00e0 qu&rsquo;elle a construit tout le reste.<\/p>\n<p>Quand sa m\u00e8re a r\u00e9ussi \u00e0 lancer une micro-entreprise de garde d&rsquo;enfants et \u00e0 quitter le shelter, elle a inscrit sa fille de neuf ans \u00e0 un cours de taekwondo en centre r\u00e9cr\u00e9atif \u2014 cinq dollars par mois. Aldrich a d\u00e9vor\u00e9 la discipline. Ceinture noire \u00e0 treize ans. \u00c0 cet \u00e2ge, un instructeur l&#8217;emm\u00e8ne dans une salle de MMA \u00ab\u00a0juste pour s&rsquo;amuser\u00a0\u00bb. Elle ne repartira plus.<\/p>\n<h3>Amateur acharn\u00e9e, pro confirm\u00e9e<\/h3>\n<p>Manquant de comp\u00e9tition de qualit\u00e9 au Colorado, Aldrich s&rsquo;est transform\u00e9e en \u00ab\u00a0road warrior\u00a0\u00bb d\u00e8s ses d\u00e9buts amateurs, acceptant des combats \u00e0 travers tous les \u00c9tats-Unis \u2014 Caroline du Sud, Hawa\u00ef, peu importe. Elle a crois\u00e9 en amateur des futures athl\u00e8tes UFC comme Raquel Pennington, Kailin Curran ou Rachael Ostovich, et elle a ramen\u00e9 des titres en mouche en 2012, 2013 et 2014.<\/p>\n<p>Elle fait ses d\u00e9buts professionnels le 1er novembre 2014 \u00e0 Invicta FC 8, o\u00f9 elle bat Delaney Owen aux points. En septembre 2015, une victoire sur Rosa Acevedo lui vaut son premier bonus \u00ab\u00a0Performance of the Night\u00a0\u00bb. Elle encha\u00eene avec un deuxi\u00e8me bonus en novembre 2016 face \u00e0 Lynn Alvarez \u2014 avant d&rsquo;\u00eatre s\u00e9lectionn\u00e9e pour The Ultimate Fighter 23 (Team Joanna vs Team Cl\u00e1udia). Joanna Jedrzejczyk la choisit en premier pick de son \u00e9quipe. Aldrich remporte son \u00e9limination face \u00e0 Kristi Lopez avant de tomber en quart de finale contre Tatiana Suarez, future championne de la saison, par soumission.<\/p>\n<h3>Une carri\u00e8re UFC construite sur la r\u00e9gularit\u00e9<\/h3>\n<p>Ses d\u00e9buts \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC le 10 d\u00e9cembre 2016 se soldent par une d\u00e9faite aux points contre Juliana Lima. Mais Aldrich ne l\u00e2che pas. Elle aligne ensuite des victoires sur Chan-Mi Jeon (2017), Danielle Taylor et Polyana Viana (2018, les deux aux points), avant de prendre un s\u00e9rieux coup d&rsquo;arr\u00eat en mars 2019 \u00e0 Nashville : Maycee Barber la stoppe au deuxi\u00e8me round par TKO, apr\u00e8s un crochet gauche d\u00e9vastateur suivi de combinaisons et genoux en cage.<\/p>\n<p>La transition vers les mouches (flyweight, 125 lbs) lui redonne un souffle. En 2021, elle encha\u00eene des d\u00e9cisions serr\u00e9es mais gagnantes contre Cortney Casey (split) et Vanessa Demopoulos. En juin 2022, une victoire sur Gillian Robertson pr\u00e9c\u00e8de une d\u00e9faite marquante : Erin Blanchfield la soumet au deuxi\u00e8me round par \u00e9tranglement debout \u2014 guillotine saisie sur une frappe, tap out les pieds au sol. En 2023, elle rel\u00e8ve la t\u00eate avec un TKO sur Na Liang puis une d\u00e9cision sur Montana De La Rosa. Mars 2025 : victoire sur Andrea Lee. Avril 2026 : d\u00e9cision unanime contre Jamey-Lyn Horth \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC Fight Night.<\/p>\n<h3>Style : la technicienne qui grignote les rounds<\/h3>\n<p>Aldrich est une strikeuse \u00e0 l&rsquo;ancienne \u2014 boxe propre, jambes de taekwondo, capacit\u00e9 \u00e0 g\u00e9rer distance et tempo sur trois rounds. Sur 15 victoires professionnelles, 12 sont des d\u00e9cisions. Sa pr\u00e9cision au striking tourne autour de 46 % (922 coups significatifs connect\u00e9s sur 1999 tentatives \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC) et sa d\u00e9fense aux takedowns atteint 68 %. Elle ne cherche pas le KO \u00e0 tout prix, mais quand elle a la place, elle peut finir : 3 victoires par arr\u00eat stoppage \u00e0 son actif, dont un TKO sur Na Liang en 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Titulaire d&rsquo;une ceinture noire 3e degr\u00e9 en taekwondo et d&rsquo;une ceinture marron en jiu-jitsu br\u00e9silien (Elevation Fight Team), elle repr\u00e9sente le profil de la combattante qui dure \u2014 depuis 2016 \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC, avec 13 combats dans la division mouche, un record qui la place parmi les v\u00e9t\u00e9ranes les plus actives de la cat\u00e9gorie. Au classement UFC Women&rsquo;s Flyweight, elle pointe \u00e0 la 14e place (mars 2026).<\/p>\n<div class=\"sources-article\"><strong>Sources :<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/JJ_Aldrich\">Wikipedia<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ufc.com\/athlete\/jj-aldrich\">UFC.com<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/bleacherreport.com\/articles\/2787859-from-the-homeless-shelter-to-ufc-jj-aldrich-says-tough-times-made-her-stronger\">Bleacher Report<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JJ Aldrich, combattante UFC n\u00e9e \u00e0 Denver en 1992, v\u00e9t\u00e9rane des mouches avec un record de 15-7 et 13 combats \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC depuis 2016. 3e degr\u00e9 de taekwondo, brown belt BJJ.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":101899,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"fighter_category":[69978],"fighter_tag":[],"class_list":["post-104531","fighter_profile","type-fighter_profile","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","fighter_category-womens-flyweight"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.3 -
