Julianna Pena is one of the top women’s martial artists in the world. Training out of SikJitsu in Spokane, Washington, Pena became the first woman to win The Ultimate Fighter. “The Venezuelan Vixen” is of Mexican and Venezuelan descent.
Pena has suffered multiple lengthy layoffs throughout her career. After winning The Ultimate Fighter, Pena suffered a devastating knee injury that caused her to miss two years. During a training session, Pena suffered damage to her ACL, MCL, LCL and meniscus in her right knee.
After a loss to women’s flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko in January 2017, Pena then gave birth to her daughter and was out of action for another two years.
Along with being a mixed martial artist, Pena is an announcer for MMA promotion Combate Americas which airs on DAZN. She was also featured in an award-winning documentary titled Fight Life.
