Claudia
Gadelha is expected to lock horns with Xiaonan Yan
at a UFC event in Las Vegas on Sept. 26.
Combate was first to report the strawweight booking. The card
will likely take place at the UFC Apex. A headliner for the event
has not been revealed.
Gadelha has won three of her last four Octagon appearances,
including a contentious split-decision triumph against Angela Hill
in her most recent outing at UFC on ESPN 8. The former strawweight
title challenger owns notable wins over the likes of Carla
Esparza, Karolina
Kowalkiewicz, Randa
Markos and Ayaka
Hamasaki.
Yan, meanwhile, is unbeaten in her last 11 professional bouts, a
stretch includes victories in her first five UFC appearances. Most
recently, the China Top Team representative outpointed Kowalkiewicz
at UFC Fight Night 168 on Feb. 23.
