Ultimate Fighting Championship
In 2017, Faria was set to make her UFC at UFC 216 against Andrea Lee, however as Lee had previously failed a drugs test, USADA required her to be in the testing pool six months before competing, causing her to pull out.[9] Lee was replace by fellow promotional newcomer Mara Romero Borella who submitted Faria in the first round.[10]
Faria next faced Jessica Eye at UFC Fight Night: Stephens vs. Choi on January 14, 2018. She lost the back and forth fight by split decision.[11]
Faria then faced Joanne Calderwood on August 25, 2018 at UFC Fight Night 135.[12] She lost the fight via submission in the first round.[13]
In January 2020, it was reported that Faria was released by UFC.[14]

gollark: *Is* there one?
