Elite Amateur Athletes
Michelle Montague
New Zealand s Michelle Montague has had a short but impactful IMMAF career so far, and made her debut at the 2019 World Mixed Martial Arts Association Oceania Open Championships with a winning effort over Mel Webster via kneebar submission.
Since then, Montague has been rampant in the women s lightweight division, winning all six of her bouts so far in her amateur career, five by submission and none lasting the full three rounds.
Montague has won four of her bouts before the end of round one, with only her opening match of the 2019 IMMAF World Championships going to the third round, where she won by technical knockout against Russia s Olga Rusina.
