The fighter will be added to the card to replace Rachael Ostovich, who was removed from action and the reasons were not disclosed by the company.
Priscila, who arrived at Ultimate undefeated, emerged for the company as a possible promise in the flyweight division (up to 56,7kg). The Brazilian, however, was unable to show her best performance, which made her sign a contract with the organization, and was defeated in all three presentations.
On the 'tightrope', the Rio native needs to emerge victorious over Dobson to avoid running the risk of having her contract terminated with the organization.
Just like the Brazilian, Shana also needs to emerge victorious in the fight. Coming from two consecutive defeats and with just one Ultimate victory, the 30-year-old North American needs to defeat Pedrita to maintain her dream of continuing to wear the company's gloves.
The main fight of UFC Auckland will be represented by the meeting between Paul felder e Dan Hooker.
In addition to Priscila, Brazil will have two more representatives. Vinícius Mamute and Marcos Foot they will take the colors of the Tupiniquim flag to the Octagon.
