A pair of strawweights scrappers is reportedly headed to South America in August. According to a report by MMA DNA’s Marcel Dorff, Tecia Torres will take on the rising Marina Rodriguez at UFC Montevideo, in Uruguay.
In desperated need of a victory, Tecia Torres (10-4) was bested by Jessica Andrade, Joanna Jedrzejczyk and Weili Zhang in her last three outings, all by way of unanimous decision. In fact, the ‘Tiny Tornado’ hasn’t had her hand raised since a decision win over Michelle Waterson back in December 2017.
On the other hand, the undefeated Marina Rodriguez (11-0-1) will look for her second straight UFC win.
