UFC has a new Czech representative! Who has signed a contract with the world’s biggest MMA league?

The Czech Republic has another representative in the ranks of the UFC. Who signed a contract with the world’s best MMA organization will surely surprise you.

After Jiri Prochazka won the UFC welterweight championship, the Czech Republic made an indelible mark in the history of the organization. In the summer, other Czech representatives could have been among the chosen ones, but they did not reach their set goals. Or at least for now.

First, at the end of August, Matěj Peňáz had a chance to be among the elite. But he didn’t fulfill his task of beating Sedrique Dumas in Dan White’s Contender Series and after 47 seconds he tapped out after a well-placed guillotine by his opponent.

Just a week later, young MMA fighter Tereza Bledá was able to improve the reputation of the domestic scene on the world level. Unlike Peñaza, she defeated her Brazilian opponent after a dominant points win, but Dana White was not dazzled by her performance.

Well, not for the moment, because everything is different now. That’s because Tereza shared some unexpected news on her social media. Today she signed a contract with the UFC! “I can’t believe it when dreams come true,” she commented on her Instagram post.

Her coach André Reinders confirmed the amazing news. ” It’s true, Tereza has a contract with the UFC, she signed a four-fight deal,” Reinders revealed to kaocko.cz. “We know the date of the fight and the opponent, but here we are waiting for the announcement from the UFC,” he added.

Tereza is only the second Czech, after Lucie Pudilova, to fight in the UFC overseas. The 20-year-old fighter has her whole career ahead of her. The undefeated Bledá will want to measure her strength against the top, which the local scene does not offer much of yet. Will she succeed among the elite?
