Dos Santos competed for a UFC contract in 2022 on Dana White’s Contender Series. She was not selected that night after dropping a decision to Denise Gomes. Following three consecutive wins on smaller promotions dos Santos was then awarded a UFC contract but suffered split decision losses in her first two outings.
