It was only November of last year that Australia’s Jessica-Rose Clark stepped into the Octagon for her UFC debut, a short-notice bout against compatriot Bec Rawlings. She came away with the win in that scrap, and followed it with another victory six weeks later against Paige VanZant in St. Louis.
In less than two months, the still-new women’s flyweight division was already on notice.
Fast forward to June 2018 and her pending match against Jessica Eye on the main card at Fight Night Singapore, and she’s poised to own the most wins in the division and find herself within spitting distance of a title shot.
