Jaqueline Amorim : la ceinture noire de Manaus qui \u00e9touffe l’Octogone<\/h2>\n

Jaqueline de Moraes Amorim a grandi \u00e0 Manaus, en plein c\u0153ur de l’Amazonie br\u00e9silienne, dans une famille o\u00f9 le jiu-jitsu s’est vite impos\u00e9 comme une \u00e9vidence. Son p\u00e8re, fascin\u00e9 par les premi\u00e8res \u00e9ditions de l’UFC et par Royce Gracie, l’emm\u00e8ne d\u00e8s ses 6 ans \u00e0 l’acad\u00e9mie A.S.L.E. \u2014 la m\u00eame qui a form\u00e9 Ronaldo \u00ab\u00a0Jacar\u00e9\u00a0\u00bb Souza. Ce que personne n’imaginait alors, c’est que la petite Jaqueline allait passer les deux d\u00e9cennies suivantes \u00e0 ramasser des m\u00e9dailles aux quatre coins du monde.<\/p>\n

Une carri\u00e8re en jiu-jitsu hors norme<\/h3>\n

Sous la direction de Mestre Faustino Neto, Amorim b\u00e2tit un palmar\u00e8s en comp\u00e9tition de grappling qui fait peur. Elle devient championne du monde IBJJF en ceinture violette d\u00e8s 2013, remporte l’Abu Dhabi World Pro en 2014, et encha\u00eene les titres jusqu’\u00e0 sa ceinture noire, obtenue le 13 juillet 2015 \u00e0 tout juste 20 ans. Elle repr\u00e9sente ensuite le team Checkmat sur le circuit international. La ceinture noire second degr\u00e9 qu’elle porte aujourd’hui est le r\u00e9sultat de presque vingt ans de tatami quotidien.<\/p>\n

En 2020, la pand\u00e9mie stoppe net les tournois BJJ. Amorim, priv\u00e9e de comp\u00e9tition, rejoint l’American Top Team \u00e0 Coconut Creek, en Floride, pour franchir le cap du MMA. La transition est logique : quelqu’un qui peut vous soumettre dans les sept secondes n’a pas besoin de s’invent une nouvelle identit\u00e9 de combattante.<\/p>\n

De la LFA \u00e0 l’UFC : une ascension en premi\u00e8re vitesse<\/h3>\n

Elle d\u00e9bute en MMA professionnel en 2020 et ne tarde pas \u00e0 marquer les esprits : quatre premi\u00e8res victoires, toutes par soumission au premier round. En ao\u00fbt 2022, elle d\u00e9croche le titre poids paille de la LFA lors de LFA 142 \u2014 premi\u00e8re Br\u00e9silienne \u00e0 conqu\u00e9rir cette ceinture dans la division. L’UFC ne tarde pas \u00e0 sonner.<\/p>\n

Son entr\u00e9e \u00e0 l’UFC le 8 avril 2023 (UFC 287) est compliqu\u00e9e : d\u00e9faite aux points face \u00e0 Sam Hughes, sur d\u00e9cision unanime, \u00e0 l’issue d’un combat de trois rounds qui est aussi le premier de sa carri\u00e8re \u00e0 d\u00e9passer le premier acte. \u00ab\u00a0\u00c7a m’a ouvert les yeux sur beaucoup de choses \u00e0 am\u00e9liorer\u00a0\u00bb, dira-t-elle. Ce revers ne dure pas longtemps dans la m\u00e9moire collective.<\/p>\n

La machine \u00e0 soumissions<\/h3>\n

Ce qui suit ressemble \u00e0 une d\u00e9monstration m\u00e9thodique. En ao\u00fbt 2023, TKO au troisi\u00e8me round face \u00e0 Montserrat Ruiz. Le 16 mars 2024, armbar au premier round sur Cory McKenna en 1:38. Le 7 septembre 2024, nouveau armbar, cette fois sur Vanessa Demopoulos en 3:28. Le 27 avril 2025, rear-naked choke sur Polyana Viana au deuxi\u00e8me round. Et le 30 mai 2026, encore un armbar au premier round contre Loma Lookboonmee en 4:04. Au total, 9 de ses 11 victoires pro sont des soumissions \u2014 un ratio de 82 % qui en dit long sur l’\u00e9cart technique qu’elle impose au sol. Son record se r\u00e9sume \u00e0 11 victoires pour 2 d\u00e9faites, avec la seule autre d\u00e9faite arriv\u00e9e sur d\u00e9cision unanime face \u00e0 Mizuki Inoue \u00e0 l’UFC 321 en octobre 2025.<\/p>\n

Son style : le grappling comme arme principale<\/h3>\n

Amorim pratique le jiu-jitsu depuis plus de vingt ans. Sur le tatami MMA, \u00e7a se voit imm\u00e9diatement : elle cherche le clinch, le takedown, et d\u00e8s qu’elle est au sol, la finalisation arrive vite. Tr\u00e8s vite. Six de ses victoires professionnelles ont \u00e9t\u00e9 boucl\u00e9es en moins de deux minutes. Armbar et rear-naked choke sont ses finitions de pr\u00e9dilection, mais c’est surtout la pr\u00e9cision de ses transitions qui distingue son grappling \u2014 pas de force brute, mais un encha\u00eenement de positions qui ne laisse aucune sortie \u00e0 l’adversaire.<\/p>\n

Statut actuel<\/h3>\n

\u00c0 30 ans, Jaqueline Amorim s’impose comme l’une des soumissionneuses les plus dangereuses de la division poids paille \u00e0 l’UFC. Apr\u00e8s sa victoire sur Lookboonmee fin mai 2026, son record UFC s’\u00e9tablit \u00e0 5-2 et son nom commence s\u00e9rieusement \u00e0 circuler du c\u00f4t\u00e9 du Top 15. Manaus a produit beaucoup de champions de jiu-jitsu. L’Amazonie attend maintenant de voir si l’un d’eux peut aller chercher une ceinture UFC.<\/p>\n
