Agnieszka Niedźwiedź (Polish:) is a Polish former mixed martial artist who last competed in the Flyweight division in Invicta FC. She fought for organizations like MMA Attack, Cage Warriors and Fighters Arena. In 2017, the year of her last recorded fight to date, she was ranked #2 in the world in the women's flyweight category.

## Early life

Niedźwiedź was sent to a Judo class by her mother at the age of seven. She continued to train for ten years, acquiring competition experience, until her brother convinced her to try Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. After only two or three classes, Niedźwiedź was offered an MMA fight. Her next fight a month later would start her MMA career.

## Mixed martial arts career

### Early career

Niedźwiedź began her professional MMA career in October 2012 in her native Poland. Over the next year and a half, she amassed a record of 7 wins against no losses before joining Invicta FC.

### Invicta FC

Niedźwiedź made her American debut at Invicta FC 18: Grasso vs. Esquibel against Christine Stanley and won via unanimous decision. She then fought Vanessa Porto at Invicta FC 23: Porto vs. Niedźwiedź and again won by unanimous decision.

On December 8, 2017, she faced Jennifer Maia for the Invicta FC flyweight title. She lost the fight via unanimous decision.

Niedźwiedź was offered a place on The Ultimate Fighter (TUF), but declined, citing her appreciation of the high skill level in Invicta FC and her reluctance to be apart from her young son.

## Personal life

Niedźwiedź was born in Katowice, Poland. She describes her main motivation as being her son, Alan. When asked what she would be doing if she was not doing MMA, she said: "My dream is to have my own baker’s shop as I love to bake pies and cakes. I really hope that dream will come true after [sic] MMA career".
