15 Female Prospects the UFC Should Sign in 2021

Lucrezia Ria (Flyweight)

28 | 5’6” | Reggio Emilia, Italy | 8-2 | 7 Finishes | 7 Submissions (Guillotine, Armbar, RNC) | Combined Opponents’ Record: 22-9 | Best win – Marilia Santos (10-2)

Ria fought last on Dana White’s Contender Series back in 2019 and beat a good fighter in Marilia Santos. While she won that bout, she didn’t come out with the UFC contract. That said, Ria proved to have some potential. She hasn’t fought since the Contender Series but it would be nice to see Invicta sign her so she can get more experience, at a higher level.

Ria is a long fighter who uses her reach well. She throws a lot of output in bursts and hits really hard. Although she is exceptionally good on the feet she is even better on the mat. All her finishes are by submission and she is dangerous on top or off her back.
