De Randamie, who has a record of 10 victories and four losses, was last seen in the UFC octagon on October 2020. Back then, she fought against Julianna Pena, and with a powerful Guillotine Choke, she forced Pena to submit in round three. However, before the glorious victory, her rematch against Amanda Nunes paved the way for her to lose not just the bout but her winning streak as well. Now that the Iron Lady has embraced a new phase in her life, the audience needs to wait to watch her come back stronger.
