Karol Rosa: The Journey of Denise Gomes' Partner in MMA
Karol Rosa, a Brazilian mixed martial artist, has made a name for herself in the UFC's women's bantamweight division. Born on December 30, 1994, in Vila Velha, Espírito Santo, she began her professional MMA career in 2012 and joined the UFC in 2019.
Rosa started training in Brazilian jiu-jitsu at the age of 13 and balanced her training with work as a waitress to support her family. She has been in a relationship with fellow fighter Denise Gomes since 2018, and they have both developed their careers in MMA together.
In addition to her fighting career, Rosa co-founded the GAEA Project, which aims to create a supportive training environment for female fighters. The initiative has expanded to include an academy in São Caetano do Sul, São Paulo. Rosa's earnings in the UFC have increased over the years, with estimates of her net worth around $300,000, although this figure is speculative. She actively shares her journey on Instagram under the handle @karolrosaufc.
