PFL's Women's Flyweight Division Just Got a 12-Time UFC Vet
Montana De La Rosa is back in the game, and this time, she's joining the Professional Fighters League (PFL) as a 12-time UFC veteran. After a successful run in the UFC, De La Rosa is now set to take on a new challenge, adding to the PFL's growing talent pool at 125 pounds. With a record of 6-5-1, De La Rosa is a familiar face to many MMA fans.
But here's where it gets interesting. De La Rosa's journey hasn't been without its ups and downs. She started strong, winning four of her first five fights from 2017 to 2020. However, her recent performance has been a bit inconsistent. After a split-decision win over Andrea Lee in June 2024, De La Rosa hasn't stepped into the Octagon since. A proposed fight against Luana Carolina in March fell through due to weight cut issues.
Despite her mixed results, De La Rosa's addition to the PFL's women's flyweight division is a significant move. With her experience and skill, she will undoubtedly bring a new level of competition to the league. The PFL continues to build a strong talent pool, and with De La Rosa's signing, they've added a true veteran to their ranks. The date of her debut is yet to be announced, and the terms of her contract remain confidential, but one thing is clear: Montana De La Rosa is a force to be reckoned with in the world of women's MMA.
