UFC 273 will see the debut of Piera Rodriguez in the Ultimate Fighting Championship women’s strawweight division. Rodriguez faces Kay Hansen as part of the undercard and hopes to become the latest Venezuelan to nail down a victory inside the Octagon, following in the footsteps of Omar Morales and Veronica Macedo. The 29-year-old carries a perfect 7-0 record, with five wins by knockout or technical knockout. Rodriguez’s opponents feature a cumulative .588 winning percentage (30-21).
A former Legacy Fighting Alliance titleholder, Rodriguez has a solid chin and loves to invite her opponents to trade shots openly.
