An all-Brazilian matchup has been added to a loaded UFC 280 card.
Following a report from Globo’s Raphael Marinho, ESPN confirmed that No. 8 ranked Amanda Lemos and No. 3 ranked Marina Rodriguez will face off on October 22nd in Abu Dhabi
Lemos (12-2-1) is not even a week removed from her second-round guillotine choke finish of Michelle Waterson-Gomez at UFC Long Island. After her UFC debut loss up at bantamweight vs. Leslie Smith in 2017, Lemos went on to win five consecutive fights once she moved down to 115 lbs.
