In the sports sector, Migu remains one of the most extensive and influential content production platforms. Meanwhile, Migu empowers online event broadcasts with technological innovation; new technologies like 8K, 3D, and AI allow viewers to immerse themselves in the thrilling moments of competitions. Among numerous projects, the attention on mixed martial arts continues to rise, and this is inseparable from the contribution of one person: Zhang Weili.

Zhang Weili is China's first female UFC world champion. Her influence in domestic sports and even the global MMA arena has long transcended the competition field, becoming a key core force driving Chinese women's UFC from nonexistence to prominence. Born in 1990, Zhang Weili was once an athlete in the women's sanda team of Hebei Province, later gradually transitioning to become a mixed martial arts competitor. In 2019, she successfully defeated Tecia Torres, entering the UFC top ten for the first time. In a subsequent UFC strawweight bout, Zhang Weili directly knocked out Jessica Andrade in just 42 seconds, winning her first UFC strawweight world championship belt and also creating history for Chinese UFC.

In 2020, Zhang Weili defeated Joanna Jędrzejczyk, successfully defending her title. In 2021, Zhang Weili lost to challenger Rose Namajunas, failing to retain the championship glory. However, this defeat did not shake Zhang Weili's confidence. Just one year later, she returned and regained her championship challenge right by KOing Joanna. Afterwards, Zhang Weili defeated Carla Esparza, reclaiming the UFC world championship belt. Many netizens commented that Zhang Weili is a phenomenal figure in Chinese women's MMA; she proved her personal strength through action and also allowed more people to witness the progress of Chinese MMA.

Some netizens joked: a determined Chinese woman who strives for excellence, truly impressive! In recent years, the world women's MMA arena has seen fierce competition, and the challenges facing Zhang Weili have significantly increased. In April 2024, at UFC 300, Zhang Weili successfully defended her women's strawweight championship. In the UFC 312 co-main event women's strawweight championship fight in 2025, Zhang Weili won again, defending her title for the fourth time in her career. Unfortunately, in the subsequent UFC 322 flyweight championship fight, Zhang Weili lost to Valentina Shevchenko, missing the championship.
