October 9, 2015 | Posted by
Jessica Andrade is lighting up for her next fight. The UFC’s Brazilian website announced that Andrade is dropping to strawweight after a 1-2 run at bantamweight this year.
Andrade’s lasst fight was at UFC 191, where she lost to Raquel Pennington via rear-naked choke submission. Andrade said of the weight class move, “I expected it to be way more complicated. I managed to stay at 132 pounds and eat well.”
Her first fight in the division has yet to be announced.
