Mixed martial arts career

Early career

Pudilová fought most of her early MMA career in Europe.[3] Her win over Melinda Fábián, an The Ultimate Fighter 26 contestant, earned her the title of Bantamweight Champion for the Gladiator Championship Fighting promotion in Czech Republic.[7][8] Pudilová amassed a record of 6-1 prior to being signed by UFC, with the one loss to Lina Länsberg.[2] Pudilová is the third Czech to be signed by UFC.[9]

Ultimate Fighting Championship

Pudilová made her promotion debut on March 18, 2017, replacing injured Verónica Macedo,[10] at UFC Fight Night: Manuwa vs. Anderson against Lina Länsberg in a rematch in London.[11] After three round fierce fighting, she lost the fight via unanimous decision.[12][13][14] However, at the post fight interview, Länsberg, with a badly battered right eye, declared Pudilová the rightful winner of the bout.[15]

Her second fight came on June 17, 2017 in Singapore at UFC Fight Night: Holm vs. Correia.[16] She faced Ji Yeon Kim and won the fight via unanimous decision.[17][18]

Pudilová faced Sarah Moras on February 18, 2018 at UFC Fight Night: Cowboy vs. Medeiros.[19] She won the fight by unanimous decision.[20]
