Fatima Kline Is Right Where She Belongs

Undefeated Prospect Keen To Showcase Her Skills In Short-Notice Debut Against Ranked Flyweight Jasmine Jasudavicius This Weekend

Anyone that watches the regional circuit and has seen Fatima Kline compete knew that the unbeaten 23-year-old would eventually find her way into the UFC Octagon.

After earning “Double Champ” status under the Cage Fury Fighting Championships (CFFC) banner earlier this year by adding the strawweight title alongside the flyweight belt she’d won in November, Kline was signed last week to compete on the upcoming season of Dana White’s Contender Series.

A day later, she was chosen to replace Viviane Araujo opposite Jasmine Jasudavicius this weekend in Denver, skipping over the summer talent search series in favor of jumping right into the cage against a ranked opponent instead.
