PANNIE KIANZAD’S NEXT STEP
The pair’s first meeting came early in their respective careers. It was Kianzad’s third fight as a professional; for Lansberg, her first. Pannie Kianzad won the bout via TKO. Despite that, it was Lansberg who landed in the UFC first. She joined the promotion in 2016 as a potential foil for Cris Cyborg, competing at a 140lb catchweight in a losing effort before moving to bantamweight.
