With 17 years’ difference between them, Lucindo is left wondering whether Hill is underestimating the experience level of the young Brazilian. A pro since she was 15 years old, Lucindo carries herself with the aura of someone who has seen plenty in her career.

“I’m only 23 years old, but I also have a lot of struggle,” Lucindo said. “As incredible as it may seem, it’s been nine years in the world of MMA. I’ve also fought with very tough athletes too.

We will fight completely on equal footing, and I will not underestimate it.”
