According to a report by ESPN’s Brett Okamoto, a bout between contenders Jessica Andrade and Karolina Kowalkiewicz is in the works for the upcoming September card.
Jessica Andrade (18-6) will look for her third straight win after defeating both Claudia Gadelha and Tecia Torres via unanimous decision. Andrade’s last loss came in May 2017, when she challenged then-champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk for the title, but dropped a unanimous decision.
Also on a two-fight winning streak, Karolina Kowalkiewicz (12-2) bested Felice Herrig and Jodie Esquibel in her last two outings, with the Herrig victory coming this past April at UFC 223.
