Very soon we will be seeing 115 lb female Strawweights inside the Octagon. The UFC has already acquired a who's-who of competitors in the UFC's coming strawweight division. The show will introduce us to the division by putting together the first season of the Ultimate Fighter that will include and all female cast of competitors featuring some of Invicta FC's biggest names including current Invicta Strawweight Champion, Carla Esparza. The women on the show will compete until there are two women left to square off for the inaugural UFC Strawweight Championship at the finale. Now it seems that another big name from Invicta may be joining the cast as well.
Former Invicta Atomweight Champion, Jessica Penne (11-2) has expressed interest in moving up a weight class to try out for the 20th season of the Ultimate Fighter. Penne defeated Naho Sugiyama at Invicta FC 3 in order earn the Invicta Atomweight title, but lost the title to Michelle Waterson at Invicta FC 5. Penne recovered from that loss by defeating Nicdali Rivera-Calanoc at Invicta FC 6 by securing a first round rear-naked choke.
