LONDON – Ketlen Vieira doesn’t think Julianna Pena should fight for the title next. With the UFC’s women’s bantamweight title now vacant, former champion Peña sees a fight between her and Raquel Pennington as the matchup that makes most sense. But because Peña just lost her title to Amanda Nunes, Vieira (14-3 MMA, 8-3 UFC) agrees with Pennington, but says Peña shouldn’t be one half of the vacant title fight. “I think Raquel Pennington deserves it. She’s coming off five wins,” Vieira told reporters at her UFC Fight Night 224 post-fight news conference.
