About Piera Rodríguez
Venezuelan pressure and a second phase on the rise
Piera Rodríguez came to the UFC after winning the LFA strawweight championship and starting her professional career unbeaten. The Venezuelan won her first two appearances in the Octagon before suffering her first loss to Gillian Robertson.
Fighting style
Rodríguez is fundamentally a pressure striker. She looks to advance, work with combinations and force opponents into long exchanges, although she also has enough physical strength to defend herself in clinch and grappling situations.
Back on the rise
After a difficult stretch, she rebuilt her career with wins over Josefine Knutsson, Ketlen Souza and Sam Hughes. That new run put her back among the relevant names in an especially deep strawweight division.
