November 23, 2022,
Her entrance is so festive, if you are seeing her for the first time, you wonder which of the many MMA professional organizations does Alejandra Lara fight for.
It’s Bellator.
Right up there with UFC and The PFL.
Bellator MMA is an American mixed martial arts promotion founded in 2008 and based in Santa Monica, California, owned and operated as a subsidiary of television and media conglomerate Paramount Global.
It is the second largest in the United States and one of the largest combat sport promotions in the world.
The promotion takes its name from bellātor, the Latin word for "warrior".
Bellator's first event was held in 2009, and the promotion had since held over 200 "numbered" events as of December 2019.
Alejandra is quite a number.
On June 20, 2022, as reported at cagesidepress.com, “A former title challenger, Lara (9-5) will be looking to snap a two-fight losing streak, having dropped back-to-back fights against Kana Watanabe and DeAnna Bennett.”
Unfortunately, during recent fights, some of her luster has worn off, due to consecutive loses but she certainly is easy to root for with her entrances and messages that she writes upon her body during pre-fight posing.
Stop Deforestation.
Our Lungs Are On Fire.
SOS Amazon.
Respect Animals.
Respect Nature.
We think we understand her message and passion. Respect it a ton. She’s not just in this sport for the money but appears to want to deliver important messages as well.
Be a platform for good.
Deforestation or forest clearance is the removal of a forest or stand of trees from land that is then converted to non-forest use.

Deforestation can involve conversion of forest land to farms, ranches, or urban use.
The most concentrated deforestation occurs in tropical rainforests. About 31% of Earth's land surface is covered by forests at present.
This is one-third less than the forest cover before the expansion of agriculture, a half of that loss occurring in the last century.
Between 15 million to 18 million hectares of forest, an area the size of Bangladesh, are destroyed every year. On average 2,400 trees are cut down each minute.
The removal of trees without sufficient reforestation has resulted in habitat damage, biodiversity loss, and aridity. Deforestation causes extinction, changes to climatic conditions, desertification, and displacement of populations, as observed by current conditions and in the past through the fossil record.
Alejandra, thanks for bringing this important issue to our attention. We need to hear it again.
In our fully competitive female submission wrestling industry, a number of ex-MMA female fighters are crossing over and joining the ranks. We just wish more money was available.
Given Alejandra’s personality, we think she would make an incredible session girl.
Alejandra is a Colombian female mixed martial artist currently signed to the Bellator MMA promotion. As of October 4, 2022, she is #10 in the Bellator Women's Flyweight Rankings.
Lara made her MMA debut on December 10, 2011 on Extreme Combat MMA Senshi Ki 1 against Monica Leon, winning the fight in round one via retirement.
Before joining Bellator MMA, she amassed a record of 6 wins against one loss.
One of her first great victories is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=os21HqKctkQ
We love her dance moves. She has such creativity, style and beauty, we would love to see her participate in our industry.
