India

Suffers first UFC defeat
StrawweightUFC
March 22, 2025
Tomar lost to Shauna Bannon via submission (armbar) at 3:22 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in London.
ANALYSIS
At this level, you simply cannot be giving fights away when you have your opponent in a dominant position like Tomar did here. There wasn't much going on the first half of this bout, at which point Tomar fired off a head kick which landed flush. Bannon stumbled to the mat and the fight very easily could have been stopped, but referee Lukasz Bosacki allowed it to continue. Bannon was eventually able to find an armbar as a result, handing Tomar a crushing defeat. Nothing in Puja's background suggests she will be anymore than roster depth at this level. She drops to 1-1 in the UFC with the defeat.

Tomar is scheduled to compete against Shauna Bannon in a strawweight fight at UFC London on March 22, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
After beginning her UFC career by defeating Rayanne Amanda via split decision, Tomar will look to go 2-for-2 by defeating Bannon. Like Tomar, Bannon also came out on the positive end of a split decision in her last fight, the latter's case being against Alice Ardelean.
Takes decision in Louisville opener
StrawweightUFC
June 8, 2024
Tomar defeated Rayanne Amanda via split decision (30-27, 27-30, 29-28) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Louisville, Kentucky.
ANALYSIS
Tomar becomes the first Indian female in UFC history to win a fight. Of course, she was most fortunate that two of the three judges felt she earned the decision. To Tomar's credit, she stuffed all three of Amanda's takedown attempts, but she accomplished little on the feet, relying on poorly-timed kicks and allowing her opponent to lead the dance the entire way. It's not a strategy that typically works well in the eyes of the judges, but Tomar got away with it here. The 30-year-old has a very limited ceiling.

March 20, 2024
Tomar is scheduled to compete against Rayanne Amanda in a strawweight fight at the UFC's June 8 event, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
As it stands, Tomar will make her UFC debut during the promotion's June 8 event. She is 8-4 with six KO/TKOs and two decision wins. Tomar has not lost when going the distance, meaning she has been finished quite a bit though, with one KO/TKO loss and three submission defeats.
