A new strawweight bout has been added to the upcoming UFC Fight Night event on November 14 as Ashley Yoder and Miranda Granger will clash at the event.
Ashley Yoder is in need of a win as the straweight is coming off two consecutive losses to Lívia Renata Souza (via unanimous decision at UFC 252) and Randa Markos (via split decision at UFC Fight Night 162). The strawweight has a mixed record in her last five fights, with Yoder only beating Amanda Cooper (UFC Fight Night 139) and Syuri Kondo (UFC Fight Night 154). Yoder’s professional record currently stands at 7 wins and 6 losses.
Miranda Granger is coming off her first UFC loss against Amanda Lemos at UFC Fight Night 165. The crushing defeat actually snapped a strong seven fight winning streak that saw the strawweight beat top names in Cage Fury Fighting Championships and Combat Games MMA. Granger’s professional record stands at 7 wins and 1 loss.
The fight night event will take place on Nov. 14, with a bantamweight bout between Louis Smolka and Jose Alberto Quinones also confirmed. There’s no word on the placement of the strawweight match-up yet.
