Karolina Wojcik Record: 12-5-0

Climbing through Europe and beyond

Wojcik spent the next several years testing herself against rising international competition. She picked up decision wins over Roberta Zocco and Maria Ribeiro at Venator and Brave CF, then stepped into Poland's biggest promotion, KSW, where she outpointed the experienced 9-5 Sylwia Juskiewicz in 2020 and Aleksandra Rola in 2021. That run earned her a 2022 appearance on Dana White's Contender Series, where she edged the 10-2 Sandra Lavado by decision. She then signed with Invicta FC, opening her run there with a decision win over Gloria de Paula at Invicta FC 50 in November 2022, though she dropped a decision to Valesca Machado at the same event. Wojcik added another Invicta decision win over the 12-3 Ediana Silva in 2023 before a fourth-round technical rear-naked choke loss to Danni McCormack. After a 2024 decision loss to Jacinta Austin at OKTAGON 55, she rebounded by moving to the PFL, beating Lizzy Gevers by decision at PFL Europe 2.

Fighting style

Wojcik is a points fighter at heart, with 10 of her 12 wins coming by decision and a finish rate of just 17 percent. Her strength is her output and her ability to control the pace and position of a fight over three rounds, grinding out close decisions against tough, experienced opponents – her wins over Lavado, de Paula and Silva all came on the cards. Her two knockouts, both from her 2018 debut run, show she is not purely a volume fighter, but power has never been her calling card. The flip side is that against the division's best strikers and grapplers she has tended to come up just short, with four of her five losses by decision and one by submission, underlining how fine the margins have been throughout her career.
