For a strikingly beautiful woman, Germany’s Julia Dorny has done a lot of striking.

Consistently hitting the mark.

A lot of fighting too. And hitting.

She is the only female athlete in the world who has won championships in judo, mixed martial arts and sumo wrestling. She was the first German woman to become MMA European Champion and MMA World Champion in featherweight within the IMMAF amateurs.

That is an incredible resume.

Is there more for this German sensation? Of course there’s more.

In addition to her sports career, Julia works as a Media Scientist, journalist, and on-air reporter and presenter, for Deutsche Welle TV and N-tv.

She graduated with a bachelor‘s degree in journalism and corporate communications in 2013.

In 2017 she completed her master‘s degree in media studies at the Humboldt University of Berlin, majoring in the topic of “Framing in Journalism”.

Since January 2020 Julia has been running her own podcast, “WOMEN HIT HARDER – The Female Power Podcast by MMA World Champion Julia Dorny” and regularly releases new episodes.

In April 2020 she was appointed to the “Athletes’ Commission” of the IMMAF.

By the way, what is a Media Scientist?

Media Scientist, Researchers and Scholars research the role and impact that media has on the society. They observe and document the usage of different kinds of media such as newspapers, radio and TV and the response from society.

Intriguing.

Julia began fighting and competing long before today.

Now, for the fascinating timeline.

At the age of 7, Julia began to be enthusiastic about judo.

Since the age of 14 she has been fighting in the German Judo League.

At the age of 17 she fought for the first time in the inaugural Judo Bundesliga (PSV Rostock).

At 18, she was awarded her black belt in judo.

Our Germanic Warrior is a multiple-time Berlin judo champion.

She was German vice-champion in the individual classification, several times winner of the national ranking tournament and has countless international successes to her credit.

In 2005 she qualified for the European Judo Championship, but was unable to compete due to injury.

We always have been puzzled why someone would become fascinated with Sumo Wrestling. Never met a person who did in our entire life.

In 2016 Julia began sumo training and later that year she became German champion, won bronze at the European Championships, and took 5th place at the World Championships.

Extremely impressive.

In her sumo career, Ms. Dorny became a multiple-time German champion (individual and open weight), secured 5th place at the 2017 World Games, and won silver at the 2019 US Open in Los Angeles.

What is starting to amaze us is the variety of disciplines that Julia participates with great success in each and every one.

You’ve heard of the “Jack of all trades, master of none” which is a figure of speech used in reference to a person who has dabbled in many skills, rather than gaining expertise by focusing on one.

Julia is the exception. She appears to become a master at everything competitive that she tries.

This is very unusual.

Let’s continue to move up the timeline and view her transition into her MMA career.

Julia won her MMA debut as an amateur at the German Championships (GEMMAF) in 2015.

In the same year she was nominated for the IMMAF World Championship in Las Vegas, winning the bronze at her international debut.

She then proved to be a consistent performer by winning another bronze medal at the IMMAF European Championship in Birmingham.

Are you keeping track? It’s hard to keep up.

In 2018 she took her performance to the next level and managed to become European and World Champion on her first attempt. This rare feat made her the first German European champion and the first German World Champion in the featherweight division.

Time for a pause.

Given Julia’s incredible accomplishments across so many competitive pathways, it raises a question.

Why haven’t we heard of her before?

Have you heard of her before?

Well now we have now. We absolutely want to see more.

Here is a video of Julia speaking to her training and story.

One thing that becomes very clear and is absolutely believable is that Julia believes in hard work. Very hard work. Putting in the road work, and it shows.

It you want to see Julia in brilliant action, check out her fight against Finland’s super star Jenni Kivioja in the cage at the 2018 IMMAF –WMMAA World Championships.

After winning the European and World Championships, Julia made her professional debut in front of her home crowd on June 29, 2019 at GMC20 in Berlin against Miriam Santana Ramos.

She defeated Ramos in the first round by TKO (ground and pound).

This fight was also the first GMC women’s fight broadcast on FreeTV. She had her second fight at GMC22 on October 12, 2019 against Mariam Tatunashvili, which she also won through TKO (ground and pound) in the second round.

Not only is she a Jane of all trades, she has mastered every single one of them.

RISING STAR 2-0 FEMALE KICKBOXER CHRISTINA BREUER

She is getting off to a great start.

Keep an eye on this German talent. Her name is Christina Breuer.

Christina Breuer is a German kickboxer and mixed martial artist.

As of December 2019 she was the tenth ranked pound-for-pound women kickboxer in the world according to Combat Press and the #3 in the world as of October 2022 according to Beyond Kick.

Ms. Breuer started training in kickboxing at the age of 15 under Said El Hamdaoui at Tiger Gym Kerpen.

On July 6, 2019, Christina faced Patricia Rodriguez at Enfusion ECE #1 Female in Tenerife, Spain. She won by second-round knockout with a spectacular superman punch attack.

Massive ouch.

In 2019, Christina signed with ONE Championship. She made her promotional debut during ONE Championship: Age Of Dragons against Jorina Baars. She won by split decision, handing Baars her first loss in ten years.

Breuer was scheduled to make her mixed martial arts professional debut on May 6, 2023, at GMC Special Fight Series, after multiple opponents pulled out of the fight she finally competed against Annabell Honert. She won via submission in the second round.

Breuer’s second professional bout happened at PFL Europe 2 on July 8, 2023 against Ruby Mesu, defeating her via TKO stoppage in the second round.

Keep this German beauty on your radar.

Yes, we love to watch beautiful German girls compete in wrestling and MMA.

We, of course, have a long history of our German submission wrestlers in Susanne, Karine, Brenda, Riona, Sandra, Warrior Amazon, Curie and Kiniku.

They are always exciting and gorgeous to watch.

They will continue to keep us glued to the screen.

Beauties who will always captivate.
