Undefeated in the UFC since cutting down to strawweight after a short-notice bantamweight debut, Amanda Lemos promises to make a statement Saturday night in Las Vegas, when she meets former Invicta FC champion Livinha Souza in the preliminary portion of UFC 259 at the UFC APEX.
On a roll inside the octagon with consecutive wins over Miranda Granger and Mizuki Inoue, Lemos is “super confident” after a “great camp” in her hometown of Belem, Brazil.
Lemos says she respects Souza as an opponent, but sees herself as Souza’s toughest match ever in the UFC.
