Luana Munize Barbosa Pinheiro[5] (born November 18, 1993) is a Brazilian professional mixed martial artist who competes in the women's Strawweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). As of November 12, 2024, she is #14 in the UFC women's strawweight rankings.[6]

Background

[edit ]

Pinheiro was born into a family of judokas and started the sport at the age of two in her hometown of João Pessoa.[7] After an accomplished junior career in judo she moved to Belo Horizonte in 2011 in pursuit of a spot in the Brazilian Olympic judo team.[7] [8] However, her Olympic dreams didn't materialize and she opted to start training mixed martial arts in late 2015.[7] [9] [10]

Mixed martial arts career

[edit ]

Early career

[edit ]

Pinheiro racked a 7–1 record, competing in Brazilian regional circuit and Brave Combat Federation before being invited to Dana White's Contender Series.

Dana White's Contender Series

[edit ]

Pinheiro faced Stephanie Frausto at Dana White's Contender Series 35 on November 10, 2020. She won the fight via first-round technical knockout and was awarded a UFC contract.[11] [12]

Ultimate Fighting Championship

[edit ]

Pinheiro was scheduled to make her promotional debut against Randa Markos on March 27, 2021, at UFC 260.[13] However, Markos was removed from the card on March 18 after testing positive for COVID-19.[14] The bout was rescheduled for May 1, 2021, at UFC on ESPN: Reyes vs. Procházka.[15] Pinheiro won the bout via disqualification in the first round after Markos accidentally upkicked her in the head, rendering her unable to continue.[16]

Pinheiro was scheduled to make her sophomore appearance in the organization against Jessica Penne at UFC Fight Night 198 on November 20, 2021.[17] However Penne withdrew from the bout for undisclosed reason and she was replaced by Sam Hughes.[18] She won the bout via unanimous decision.[19]

Pinheiro was again scheduled to face Jessica Penne on April 30, 2022, at UFC Fight Night 208.[20] Their bout is once again cancelled due to Pinheiro pulling out due to an undisclosed injury.[21]

Pinhero faced Michelle Waterson on April 8, 2023, at UFC 287.[22] She won the close bout via split decision.[23]

Pinhero faced Amanda Ribas on November 18, 2023, at UFC Fight Night 232.[24] She lost the fight by TKO in the third round.[25]
