Sijara “Sarj” Eubanks (5-4 MMA, 3-2 UFC)
Flyweight (125lbs): The Ultimate Fighter Season 26 Finalist, Missed weight 1 time
Bantamweight (135lbs): 2-1 (UFC)
Sijara Eubanks was on the fast track to becoming the first UFC Women’s Flyweight Champion back in 2017, when she rolled through all 3 of her opponents on TUF Season 26. However, ahead of the finale of the show, to fight for the inaugural 125lbs women’s title, Sijara Eubanks had to be hospitalized due to weight cutting complications.
After one successful fight at flyweight following this incident, Eubanks again missed weight at 127.2lbs for her fight against Roxanne Modafferi in November of 2018. Since that fight, Eubanks has moved up to the bantamweight division, and though she lost her first two fights at 135lbs, she won a unanimous decision fight over Sarah Moras back in May. Now 35, Eubanks will look to use her 5’4″, 67″ frame to put together a winning streak in the bantamweight division. Next stop, UFC Vegas 9.
