After serving 20 month suspension Jessica Penne to return at UFC 260

After a prolonged, and public, saga with USADA Jessica Penne has been cleared to compete and is booked to fight at UFC 260. According to MMA Fighting the former UFC strawweight title contender will face Hannah Goldy.

Penne (12-5) last competed inside the Octagon all the way back in 2017. After that fight Penne was given an 18-month suspension from USADA for a failed drug test. After serving that suspension Penne was due to face Jodie Esquibel in 2019, but she was forced to withdraw from that bout with an injury she suffered on the day of the fight.
