The strawweight contender has reportedly suffered an undisclosed
injury and has been forced to withdraw from a proposed clash
against Virna
Jandiroba
at UFC 310
on Dec. 7. Multiple outlets confirmed the news following an initial
report from MMA Melotto. It is currently unknown if Jandiroba will
remain on the card against a replacement opponent.

Suarez and Janiroba were previously booked to square off in August
2023 before the Brazilian suffered a knee injury and pulled out of
the fight. Suarez would remain on the UFC on ESPN 50 card, where
she submitted ex-strawweight queen Jessica
Andrade
in the second round of their encounter. The 33-year-old
Milennia MMA representative was supposed to return to action
against Amanda
Lemos
at UFC 298 in February, but Suarez withdrew from that
contest due to what she described as a “minor setback.”

When healthy, Suarez is regarded as one of the top contenders in
the UFC at 115 pounds. She is undefeated in seven Octagon
appearances, with other notable triumphs over the likes of Carla
Esparza
, Alexa
Grasso
and Nina
Nunes
.

A former
Invicta Fighting Championships
title holder, the 36-year-old
Jandiroba has been victorious in her last four promtional outings.
Most recently, she scored a second-round submission victory against
Amanda
Lemos
in the UFC on ESPN 60 headliner on July 20.

UFC 310 takes place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and is
headlined by a welterweight championship clash between Belal
Muhammad
and Shavkat
Rakhmonov
.
