Kalindra Walquiri de Carvalho Faria[1] (born July 23, 1986) is a Brazilian mixed martial artist competing in the Women's Flyweight division.[3] Faria most recently competed in the Ultimate Fighting Championship.[4]

Mixed martial arts career

Early career

Before joining the UFC, Faria amassed a record of 18–5–1 in fights against fighters such as Cláudia Gadelha,[5] Karolina Kowalkiewicz[6] and Jessica Aguilar.[7]

Titan FC

In her lone appearance for Titan FC, Faria won the inaugural Titan FC Women's Bantamweight Championship against Carina Damm via unanimous decision.[8]

Ultimate Fighting Championship

In 2017, Faria was set to make her UFC at UFC 216 against Andrea Lee, however as Lee had previously failed a drugs test, USADA required her to be in the testing pool six months before competing, causing her to pull out.[9] Lee was replace by fellow promotional newcomer Mara Romero Borella who submitted Faria in the first round.[10]

Faria next faced Jessica Eye at UFC Fight Night: Stephens vs. Choi on January 14, 2018. She lost the back and forth fight by split decision.[11]

Faria then faced Joanne Calderwood on August 25, 2018 at UFC Fight Night 135.[12] She lost the fight via submission in the first round.[13]

In January 2020, it was reported that Faria was released by UFC.[14]

Post-UFC career

Faria was scheduled to face Sidy Rocha at SFT MMA 21 on February 29, 2020.[15] However, the bout was cancelled due to an unknown reason.

On August 26, 2020, news surfaced that Faria had signed a contract with Taura MMA.[16]
