More than just winning, a MMA fighter must impress Dana White to secure a contract with the UFC at his Contender Series program. For Gloria de Paula, the goal remains the same as she makes her UFC debut Saturday.
Booked against former Invicta FC atomweight champion Jinh Yu Frey in a strawweight contest at UFC Vegas 21, which goes down March 13 at the UFC APEX, “Glorinha” brings the exact mindset that led her to a decision victory over Pauline Macias at DWCS this past November.
“In my mind, I wanna get in there and impress Dana again,” de Paula said in an interview with MMA Fighting.
