SALT LAKE CITY – Tecia Pennington thinks there’s still time for her to become UFC champion.
Despite having many years and fights in the promotion with no title opportunity, Tecia (13-7 MMA, 9-7 UFC) is confident she can turn that around at age 35, just like her wife Raquel Pennington did a few months back.
Raquel, 35 at the time of winning the belt, finally captured the UFC women’s bantamweight title for the first time after 18 fights and a decade of competing under the UFC banner. This has brought hope and inspiration for a seasoned Tecia, who also dreams of doing the same.
