AgFight in Brazil reported yesterday that Bethe Correia vs Pannie Kianzad has been added to UFC 250 May 9 at Ginasio do Ibirapuera in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Pannie confirmed this on Instagram. This fight is at Bantamweight. Bethe is 36 years old from Brazil. She trains with the Pitbull Brothers. Her record is 11-4-1 and 5-4-1 in the UFC. She's 1-1 since returning from a two year layoff due to eye surgeries. Sijara Eubanks dominated her in round one of her last fight. But Sijara pooped out and Bethe was able to squeak out a win. Mostly she is an ineffective points fighter. Pannie is 28 years old from Denmark. Her record is 12-5 and 1-2 in the UFC. She lost to Macy Chiasson in the TUF 28 final. That was for Featherweights. So she's big for a Bantamweight and she will have a size advantage over Bethe. And that was true of her recent win over Jessica-Rose Clark. I think Pannie will win this fight. But I find that when the competition level raises and her opponent is the same size, she tends to have trouble.
