Taps out to heavy opponent
BantamweightUFC
April 12, 2025
Cowan lost to Nora Cornolle via submission (rear-naked choke) at 1:52 of Round 2 at UFC 314 on Saturday in Miami.
ANALYSIS
Fighting for the first time in almost exactly two years, Cowan ended up tapping out to an opponent that entered the evening with just a single submission win on her ledger. Cowan won Round 1 on the strength of takedowns, but she tried for a trip early in Round 2 and essentially gave Cornolle her back. She was tapping out shortly thereafter. Already 33 years old, Cowan is now 0-2 following a win on Dana White's Contender Series back in August 2022. She may get another chance with the company because she agreed to fight Cornolle here despite the latter's weight miss Friday morning, but her time is just about up.

Catchweight fight for UFC 314
BantamweightUFC
April 11, 2025

ANALYSIS
Initially, Cowan and Cornolle were scheduled to fight at UFC 315 in Montreal on May 10. Instead, they will fight a month earlier. Cornolle missed the bantamweight limit by 1.5 pounds, and Cowan agreed to a catchweight bout with 20 percent of her opponent's purse.
Taking on Cornolle in May
BantamweightUFC
February 16, 2025
Cowan will fight Nora Cornolle at UFC 315 in Montreal on May 10, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Cowan will head into the fight looking to bounce back from her most recent defeat at the hands of Jamey-Lyn Horth in April, 2023. Cowan has had a pair of canceled fights since then before being given the bout against Cornolle at UFC 315. The 33-year-old American will hold advantages in both height and reach over the older French fighter. Cowan holds a fairly even split in her career victories across KO/TKO, submission and decision finishes, though her unbeaten record in KO/TKO finishes will be put to the test by Cornolle, who boasts a perfect 6-0 record in such finishes.

Cowan (undisclosed) is scheduled to compete against Tamires Vidal in a bantamweight fight at the UFC's May 18 event, according to Nolan King of USA Today.
ANALYSIS
Half a year after bowing out of UFC Paris, Cowan is scheduled to partake in a fight for the promotion. Back in March 2023, she was expected to take a short-notice fight against Vidal in San Antonio. That fight fell through after Vidal withdrew with a medical issue. Since then, Cowan has debuted for the UFC, a decision loss to Jamey-Lyn Horth.
