Jennifer Maia entered the UFC back in mid-2018. Jennifer was able to make weight for flyweight before her first two fights in the UFC and came away with a .500 record.
But Jennifer Maia missed weight for her fight against Roxanne Modafferi by 3lbs, weighing in at 129lbs. for their bout. Maia would again miss weight in her very next fight just four months later against Katlyn Chookagian, but this time, weighed in at 127.2lbs.
Maia is 34 years old and stands at 5’4″ with a 64″ reach, and a stocky muscular build. The Brazilian has fought at bantamweight a few times in her professional MMA career already and depending on the outcome of the weight cut and upcoming bout could be looking to return to 135lbs pretty soon. But for her bout at UFC Vegas 5, Maia is again fighting in the flyweight division.
