Main Card

Brianna Van Buren

Brianna Van Buren is an American female strawweight fighter that came from Gilroy, California. This pint-size fighter stands at four-foot-eleven and trains at the American Kickboxing Academy. “The Bull” owns a professional MMA record of 9-2. Van Buren had been fighting in Rogue Fights, XFC and URCC prior to making a huge impact in Invicta FC. She went 4-0 during her tenure in Invicta and it made her punch a ticket to make the UFC roster. She fought her first bout in July 2019 at the UFC Fight Night 155 and ended with a unanimous decision victory over Livinha Souza. Van Buren is believed that she can do more as she can win with her hands or through submission.

She now owns a 10-5 professional MMA record with nine wins through decisions. Torres came in the UFC in December 2014 as an undefeated fighter from Invicta FC. She made an impressive debut and after two wins, her first career was with former champion Rose Namajunas in UFC on Fox 19. She went on a three-fight winning streak after that defeating Michelle Waterson, Juliana Lima and Bec Rawlings. But in her past four fights, she has been on a slump losing all those fights and every fight was through a unanimous decision.
