Jessica Andrade’s first bout in the UFC flyweight division will be against No. 1 ranked Katlyn Chookagian at the upcoming Fight Night card on Oct. 17, sources told MMA Fighting following a report from MMAjunkie.
The UFC Fight Night show will be headlined by featherweights Brian Ortega and “The Korean Zombie” Chan Sung Jung.
Andrade (20-8) decided to try things out at flyweight after losing a decision to Rose Namajunas in July. The former UFC strawweight champion does not rule out moving back to 115 pounds right after.
