A women’s flyweight rematch between Roxanne Modafferi and Andrea Lee could take place at the UFC show on Sept. 12 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Previously, the two UFC stars fought each during their time in Invicta FC in 2014. Modafferi got the victory that night.
Modafferi is coming off a loss to Lauren Murphy at UFC on ESPN 11 back in June. The flyweight’s professional record has been a mixed bag in her last five fights as Modafferi has only won two of her bouts, beating Maycee Barber (via unanimous decision at UFC 246) and Antonina Shevchenko (via split decision at UFC Fight Night 149). Modafferi’s professional record currently stands at 24 wins and 17 losses.
Lee is currently in the midst of a two-fight losing streak as the flyweight’s losses to Joanne Calderwood and Lauren Murphy have made her fall in the division rankings. Still, the 31-year-old has a solid record overall as she’s managed to win three bouts out of her last five, beating Montana De La Rosa (via unanimous decision at UFC Fight Night 154), Ashlee Evans-Smith (via unanimous decision at UFC on ESPN 1), and Veronica Macedo (via unanimous decision at UFC Fight Night 129). Lee’s professional record stands at 11 wins and 4 losses.
