In recent weeks, the UFC has begun producing a new video series, which features rising or surging fighters who may not be familiar to casual fans. Well, recently the “Fighters You Should Know” video was shared out for today’s UFC Fight Island 4 card.
The athletes that were selected for the latest “Fighters You Should Know” are Kyler Phillips, Heili Alateng and Julianna Pena.
If you’ve been following MMA for a little while, you’re probably familiar with Pena as she won TUF 18 back in 2013. Pena has only fought once since 2017, however, as she took a break from fighting to give birth to her daughter.
In her last bout, which went down in July, 2019, Pena defeated former flyweight champ Nicco Montana via decision.
Here is the complete line-up for today’s event, which is taking place on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi (card via MMA Mania).
