Jasmine Jasudavicius, a top-ranked fighter in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Flyweight division, returned to winning form with a unanimous decision victory over Karine Silva at UFC Winnipeg on April 21, 2026, held at the Canada Life Centre in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. During the fight, cameras captured her with something in her mouth, leading to speculation that she was using a nicotine pouch. Jasudavicius humorously addressed the rumors, stating, 'I’m one of the only people in the gym who doesn’t use nicotine pouches.' She explained that she was actually chewing gum, which she often does during fights, and simply forgot to spit it out before entering the octagon. The situation has drawn attention but does not violate any regulations, as nicotine use is not banned in the UFC. Following her victory, Jasudavicius aims to challenge top contenders in her division, including Maycee Barber and Erin Blanchfield. Interestingly, the UFC has recently partnered with FRE Nicotine Pouches, adding a layer of irony to the incident.
