Norma Dumont has begun her march toward the top of the Ultimate Fighting Championship women’s bantamweight division.
The 33-year-old Brazilian will look to take another step toward contention at 135 pounds when she confronts Irene Aldana in the featured UFC 306 prelim on Saturday at the Sphere in Las Vegas. Dumont enters the Octagon on the strength of a four-fight winning streak. She last suited up at UFC Fight Night 240, where she outdueled onetime women’s featherweight champion Germaine de Randamie to a unanimous decision on April 6.
