‘Little Hot Cheeto’: UFC Star Tracy Cortez Leaves Fans Breathless With Sizzling Red Tracksuit Look

Move over, Jon Jones. Islam Makhachev can wait too. Tracy Cortez seems to be the ‘hottest’ (pun intended, of course) star in the UFC, going by how she has got fans buzzing this week. Well, the 31-year-old flyweight fighter’s loyal following, which grows as we speak, simply adores her confident, stylish presence on social media.

Be it training clips, behind-the-scenes moments, or glam shots, fans are bowled over each time she posts something online. And the comments that flood in are quite telling. 

The #10 ranked flyweight lit up X this week with what appears to be a post-workout picture. Her fighting-fit, and of course, the sizzling look had fans calling her everything from a “queen” to a “serial killer”. And then there were those who wanted to get into the octagon with her, and, here is the best part — lose to her. “I want her to KO me so bad,” is quite a loaded comment.

In the picture, Cortez was wearing a red sports bra and leggings combination. Needless to say, there were some truly ‘impressed’ people flooding the comments section. 

 “Classify you as a serial killer because you are Merkin these ho*s,” one fan commented. Another posed a valid question, asking, “How do I explain that this is one of the most dangerous women on the planet?”

“Put me in a headlock & never let go,” said a man who clearly needs to be given a lesson in what a UFC fighter’s submission hold can do to his body. “My phone can’t handle the heat… from this slayage” was possibly the tamest response we could find. 

And last but not least, another fan added, “My little hot cheeto.”

Cortez, evidently, is a bit of a celebrity online. Of course, there is a lot of interest in her personal life as well.

Is Cortez dating someone?

Cortez was previously in a relationship with fellow UFC fighter Brian Ortega. The two began dating in 2020 and were even engaged at one point.

However, by early 2023, they parted ways, with both removing photos of each other from their social media accounts. 

Following the breakup, rumors surfaced about a possible connection between Cortez and UFC middleweight fighter Paulo Costa after they were spotted together. Cortez clarified later that they were just friends and even shared a laugh about the rumors with Costa and his girlfriend, Tamara Alves.

As of now, Cortez appears to be single and focused on her MMA career. She keeps her personal life relatively private.​

But that hasn’t stopped rumors from surfacing. Last October, when Cortez went to an Arizona Cardinals game with Sean O’Malley, quarterback Kyler Murray awkwardly mistook her for Suga’s girlfriend.

A picture of them together also went viral. But Cortez was quick to brush away the rumors.

Interestingly, the flyweight fighter has also been linked to influencer Neon, but it also remains speculative at best as of now.
