Jessica Penne will have a new opponent for her return to action.
Multiple people with knowledge of the promotion’s plans confirmed to MMA Fighting that Penne will now face newcomer Lupita Godinez at UFC Vegas 24. The event takes place April 17 at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas and will stream on ESPN+. MMA Junkie was first to report the booking.
Godinez replaces Hannah Goldy, who was removed from the rescheduled bout for undisclosed reasons.
Penne will make her first appearance in just under four years and is looking to snap a three-fight losing streak.
