Kickboxing and Muay Thai
Chochlíková started learning karate when she was six years old, and began practicing Muay Thai ten years later.
In 2016, Chochlíková was nominated for the first time to Slovakia's national kickboxing team to attend the European Championship WAKO in K1 in Maribor, Slovenia. She won the gold medal after three wins and became the first Slovak K1 fighter who won gold at a European championship.[1]
In 2017, Chochlíková attended the World Games in Krakow and won the silver medal in the K1 discipline; for non-Olympic Slovakia sports, this was the best achievement at the competition.[2]
In 2018, Chochlíková represented the national Slovak Muay Thai team as a draftee at the European Championship IFMA in Prague. After winning three rounds of fights, she became the European Muay Thai Champion IFMA as well as the first Slovak Muay Thai fighter. She was also awarded the "Rising Female Star" by the International Federation of Muay Thai Associations.[3] Later that year, Chochlíková defended her gold medal at the European Championship WAKO in K1 in Bratislava.[4]
In 2019, Chochlíková became World Champion K1 WAKO after 4 wins.[5]
In 2020, Chochlíková became a professional soldier under Army Sports Center Banská Bystrica.[6]
Mixed martial arts career
On October 1, 2020, Chochlíková made her professional MMA debut in Bellator MMA as the first female fighter from Slovakia.[7] She defeated Jade Jorand via the unorthodox "scorpion crunch" submission in the second round.[8][9]
