The return of Zhang Weili has remained a topic of conversation since her last show-stopping performance against Joanna Jedrzejczyk at UFC 248 last year. With Zhang inching closer to a year of inactivity since then, there is now some clarity on when she can be expected to appear inside of the Octagon again.
During an interview with Brett Okamoto of ESPN, UFC President Dana White shed some light on when Zhang is supposed to fight again as well as who it will likely be against and where it will be hosted.
“We’re working on her, too,” said White.
