White stated, “Julianna’s got a big chunk missing from her forehead. She’s going to see a plastic surgeon right now.”

 

White also acknowledged the possibility of this injury marking the end of Pena’s successful career, despite her previous triumph as UFC bantamweight world champion.

 

He added, “It takes some time to heal and then I don’t know. She got pretty banged up tonight, she got five or six knockdowns in the first two rounds. She was hurt. She needs to take some time off, relax, spend some time with her daughter and then we will go from there.”

White commented on the fight, saying, “I thought it was completely dominant. There were five knockdowns in the first two rounds. There’s a big difference between submission attempts and knockdowns. They’re not even comparable. Julianna’s tough as nails and her will to win is second-to-none. She wanted to win. I think as dominant as Amanda was – and she was dominant tonight – I didn’t think it was close in any way, shape or form. It was a complete shutout.”
