UFC 171: Bermudez-Hettes, Pena-Andrade Latest Additions

UFC featherweight Jimy Hettes

By FCF Staff

The UFC 171 card in Dallas, Texas, has 11 bouts signed, as the promotion has confirmed two more match-ups for the March 15th card.

At featherweight, Jim Hettes will take on Dennis Bermudez, and at bantamweight Julianna Pena will battle Jessica Andrade.

Hettes (11-1) is coming off a choke-out victory over Robert Whiteford at UFC FN 30 in October, and Bermudez (12-3) scored a UD win over Steven Siler at UFC FN 31.

In November, Pena (5-2) stopped Jessica Rakoczy to win TUF 18, and Andrade (10-3) worked her way to a UD win over Rosi Sexton at UFN 30.

UFC 171 will be headlined by a bout between Robbie Lawler and Johnny Hendricks to determine the promotion’s welterweight champ.

The card will be hosted by the American Airlines Arena.
