Not competitive in Vegas loss
BantamweightUFC
May 18, 2024
Vidal lost to Melissa Gatto via TKO (punch) at 0:37 of Round 3 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Vidal entered as a +300 underdog, which proved to be nowhere near a high enough number. She was battered on the feet by Gatto, and when that wasn't enough, Vidal found herself planted on the ground. She displayed very little awareness in terms of mat defending, but it was a punch to the chest at the start of Round 3 that severely damaged Vidal and forced referee Chris Tognoni to step in. The Brazilian is still just 25 years of age, but nothing in her background suggests any sort of breakthrough is forthcoming. Vidal drops to 1-2 in her first three UFC bouts.

February 22, 2024
Vidal is scheduled to compete against Hailey Cowan in a bantamweight fight at the UFC's May 18 event, according to Nolan King of USA Today.
ANALYSIS
Back in March 2023, Vidal was expected to fight Cowan in a short-notice fight in San Antonio. However, medical problems forced the former to withdraw from fighting Cowan. Since then, both fighters have fought once each and lost via decision. In Vidal's case, she suffered a split-decision defeat to Montserrat Rendon at UFC Vegas 79.
Drops split decision as favorite

September 23, 2023
Vidal lost to Montserrat Rendon via split decision (28-29, 29-28, 28-29) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It was an ugly performance from Vidal as a -270 favorite against a 34-year-old debuting opponent. The Brazilian pulled ahead in Round 1 with some good work on the feet, but she allowed Rendon to get her grappling game going over the course of the final ten minutes, which ultimately ended up being the difference in what was a fairly close fight. Vidal drops to 1-1 in the UFC. She knocked out Ramona Pascual in just over three minutes in her company debut last November.
Draws Rendon in September

Vidal (undisclosed) will take on the debuting Montserrat Rendon in a bantamweight matchup at UFC Vegas 79 on Sep. 23, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Vidal impressed with a first-round finish of Ramona Pascual last November that went on to win her a Performance of the Night bonus, but she was forced to withdraw from a subsequent matchup against Hailey Cowan due to medical issues. With that presumably corrected, she now draws a debuting fighter with a 5-0 record on the regional scene but without a finish in her pro MMA career. Vidal will give up two inches in height to Rendon, while both sport an identical reach.

Vidal (undisclosed) has withdrawn from Saturday's bout against Hailey Cowan, Guilherme Cruz of MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Vidal is dealing with medical issues and will not be able to fight. This fight was thrown together pretty late as it is, but this issue will removed a fight from UFC San Antonio's card. It's unclear why Vidal will be able to return to competition.
