Raquel Pennington doesn’t understand why Julianna Pena continues to get big fights.
While ‘The Venezuelan Vixen’ holds a solid 7-3 record under the UFC banner, her appearances have been few and far between since her shocking second-round submission victory over Amanda Nunes nearly four years ago. In the time since, Pena has only fought once, losing a decisive unanimous decision against ‘The Lioness’ in their UFC 277 rematch.
Pena and Nunes were scheduled to complete their trilogy a year later in Vancouver, but the TUF alumnus withdrew from the bout due to injury.
