Again submits Pannie Kianzad
Chiasson defeated Pannie Kianzad via submission (rear-naked choke) at 3:54 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Chiasson continues her ownership of Kianzad, submitting her for a second time via rear-naked choke. Macy is not strong in the stand-up and really struggles in prolonged striking exchanges, but she's big and physical and has consistently displayed an ability to defeat opponents such as Kianzad who don't bring much to the table in terms of grappling. The finish would also go on to earn her a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus. Chiasson will be 33 years of age in late-July and has zero history of defeating better competition over the course of her career, so it's highly unlikely a winning streak is forthcoming. Macy has alternated wins and losses in her last five bouts dating back to March 2021.

TUF 28 rematch scheduled
Chiasson is scheduled to compete against Pannie Kianzad in a bantamweight fight at the UFC's Vegas event on March 16, according to Aaron Bronsteter of TSN.ca.
ANALYSIS
Chiasson began her UFC career by winning Season 28 of The Ultimate Fighter, which featured a finale in which she defeated Kianzad at featherweight. While both are back to square one at bantamweight now, Chiasson should be able to replicate the TUF feat in what is expected to be her first fight since 2022.

Fight called off
Chiasson's scheduled fight against Ketlen Vieira at UFC Vegas 84 was canceled Friday for unknown reasons, Damon Martin of MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Chiasson hasn't fought since September 2022, and she will now have to wait a bit longer before returning to action. Chiasson suffered a head-kick TKO from Irene Aldana in her most recent bout and was scheduled for just one fight in 2023, which Chiasson withdrew from.

Set for first card of 2024
Chiasson (undisclosed) will compete against Ketlen Vieira in a bantamweight fight during the UFC's first card of 2024 on Jan. 13, according to Guilherme Cruz of MMAFighting.com.
ANALYSIS
Chiasson will try to bounce back in 2024. After suffering a head-kick TKO from Irene Aldana in late-2022, Chiasson took it slow in 2023, perhaps a little too much based on her inactivity that year. She was scheduled to fight Yana Santos at UFC Vegas 76. That was the only scheduled bout Chiasson had in 2023, and she eventually withdrew from it.

Out at UFC Vegas 76
Chiasson will no longer fight Yana Santos at a UFC event on July 1, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
It is unclear what forced Chiasson out of the July 1 bout. Chiasson is set to be replaced by Karol Rosa.
