Julianna Peña Potential Future World Champion and Overcoming Knee Injury

[mattf]

Remember back at the beginning of 2014 when Julianna Pena tore her ACL, MLC and LCL, after the training session that went wrong? I wonder where she should would be today without this accident happening? But, yes true injuries are part of the sport for all athletes. Anyway It's nice to see Julianna slowly rise to the top of the UFC's Women's Bantamweight 135 division.

Lesson learned for me is to stick with your dreams and good things can happen. We shall see if Pena does make it to the top of the mountain soon.

 

[Tormund]

She's unlikable and she needs to be humbled ASAP.

 

[lecter]

She's extremely annoying I hope Nunoz makes her head explode...

 

[ortizgnp]

She's kicking her doubters in the nuts.

 

[Drake]

Pena is good at what she does & her win last night was very impressive. But her striking is really sloppy. She should work specifically on it if she wants any chance of beating Nunes otherwise the fight will look like JoJed vs Carla.

 

[War Pig]

She has a sense of entitlement. She needs a few more top 10 wins before she gets a title shot. Beating Cat in a grappling match was nice but Cat was coming back from a 14 month layoff where she got completely out of shape.

I think she will wear Nunes down and ground and pound her for a victory in a future match up.

Pena is a warrior that simple.

She's still on suspension right?

 

[Yari]

She's a nutcase

Was rooting for her last night, glad she won. I think her versus Nunes is 50-50.

 

[ALAN PARTRIDGE]

I don't like her, she has no Class.

I don't know... Nunes has some pretty damn good tdd. Pena would have to survive the early rounds.

 

[JimmyFresno]

She definitely impressed last night. Nunes has the tools to beat her, but Pena made a clear case last night as to why she should be next in line for a shot at the WBW belt. Very tough opponent she beat last night, in Cat.

 

[HaikenEdge]

She should be in jail for assault. I mean the incident with the bar owner, not because of how she roughed up Zingano.
