Jessica Penne Replaced Vlismas Against Tabatha Ricci at UFC Vegas 61

Jessica Penne will step in the place of Cheyanne Vlismas to fight against Tabatha Ricci at UFC Vegas 61, aka UFC Fight Night 211 on October 1. 

Vlismas withdrew from this match due to unknown reasons, and she will be replaced by Jessica Penne, who will be returning to action. 

Jessica Penne is 2-1 in her last three bouts. She won against Lupita Godinez and Karolina Kowalkiewicz but was defeated by Emily Ducote in her most recent outing. 

On the other hand, Tabatha Ricci is on a two-fight winning streak. She lost her UFC debut against Manon Fiorot but then she managed to win two back-to-back fights. She is coming off a unanimous decision win against Polyana Viana. 

Now, it remains to be seen whether Jessica Penne will rebound from her latest loss or will Ricci extend her winning streak by defeating Penne. 

UFC Vegas 61 or UFC Fight Night 211 will take place on October 1, 2022, and will be headlined by Mackenzie Dern vs Yan Xiaonan women’s strawweight bout.
