This is the UFC Vegas 5 live blog for Joanne Calderwood vs. Jennifer Maia, the flyweight co-headliner for Saturday’s fight card at UFC APEX in Las Vegas.
Calderwood was set to fight Valentina Shevchenko before a leg injury forced the champ to withdraw from the bout. Calderwood, who most recently outpointed Andrea Lee, agreed to take on Maia, whose most recent outing ended in a unanimous decision loss to one-time title challenger Katlyn Chookagian.
