"Tarin, a Mexican national who carries the nickname "Kill Bill," announced a tryout with the WWE earlier this year. She spent several days at the WWE Performance Center in January, noting that she was the only Mexican with a tryout at that time."
"On the MMA side of things, Tarin holds a notable win over Bellator, PFL, and Invicta FC vet Kaytlin Neil from last July. Just 21-years old, six of Tarin's seven wins as a pro have come inside the distance."
"The UFC's return to Mexico City, Mexico on this Saturday, February 28 has been hit hard by the injury bug, with even the main event seeing Lone'er Kavanagh filling in for Asu Almabayev."
Ernesta Kareckaite's opponent Sofia Montenegro withdrew from UFC Mexico City, leading to undefeated flyweight Regina Tarin stepping in as a replacement. The bout has been moved to a 130lb catchweight due to the short notice. Tarin, a 21-year-old Mexican fighter nicknamed "Kill Bill," holds a 7-0 record with six wins by finish. She recently completed a WWE Performance Center tryout in January and defeated Bellator, PFL, and Invicta FC veteran Kaytlin Neil last July. Kareckaite enters with a 6-1-1 record and is 1-1 in the UFC after defeating Nicolle Caliari. The UFC Mexico City card has been heavily affected by injuries, with multiple fighter changes including the main event.
