Scouting Prospects for the Contender Series Season 5: Part 1

Lupita Godinez

Strawweight | 27 | Langley, British Columbia, Canada | 5-0 | Win Streak: 7 | 1 Submission

After posting a 4-4 amateur record, Godinez stepped off the brakes, stomped on the gas, and now has a nice undefeated resume as a professional. It should also be noted that her losses as an amateur came against good fighters, and she also holds a win against UFC fighter Sam Hughes. In her last amateur MMA fight, Godinez won the Combat Games strawweight championship. It’s obvious to see the progression “Loopy” has had, and it all showed in her last fight when she beat Vanessa Demopoulos (a Contender Series alum from last season) for the LFA strawweight title in her LFA debut. In an all-out war. She also won the BTC strawweight title. No doubt Godinez should be in the UFC next, and the Contender Series is the way to go.
