The Unlikely Intersection of MMA and Specialty Coffee The world of mixed martial arts (MMA) and specialty coffee may seem like an unlikely pairing, but a closer examination reveals commonalities between the two.
The rise of women in both realms is particularly noteworthy. Women have made significant strides in MMA since the early 2000s, when female fighters were scarce. Today, they comprise a substantial portion of the sport.
Similarly, specialty coffee has evolved from a niche hobby to a global phenomenon, with women playing a major role in its growth. One third of coffee roasters are now women, and their numbers continue to rise.
