News summary

Julianna Peña reclaimed the UFC women's bantamweight title with a split-decision victory over Raquel Pennington at UFC 307, marking her first win since defeating Amanda Nunes in December 2021. Despite her success, Peña dismissed the performance of Kayla Harrison, who also won her fight against Ketlen Vieira, and called for a trilogy bout with Nunes instead. Peña criticized Harrison's fight style, claiming it lacked impact and excitement, comparing her to former champion Ronda Rousey. Miesha Tate, a former champion and Peña's mentor, highlighted Peña's underrated striking skills, drawing parallels to middleweight champion Dricus du Plessis. Tate also praised Pennington's technical boxing, likening her style to that of Valentina Shevchenko. The future of the women's bantamweight division remains uncertain as both Peña's and Harrison's next moves are closely watched.
