In an odd turn of of events, Katlyn Chookagian will step in for Jessica Andrade — the woman who initially replaced her — and face Manon Fiorot at UFC Fight Night 209 in Paris on Sept. 3.
MMAFighting.com was first to report the change to the flyweight bout, revealing that Andrade was forced to withdraw from the event due to “medical issues.” Chookagian vs. Fiorot was the original booking before “Blonde Fighter” reportedly pulled out due to injury.
UFC Fight Night 209 takes place at Accor Arena in Paris and is headlined by a heavyweight tilt pitting Ciryl Gane against Tai Tuivasa.
