Most recently, she defeated Andrea Lee in May via unanimous decision.
In the co-main event, the legendary Cub Swanson will be competing at bantamweight when he faces Johnathan Martinez. Also, be sure to keep an eye on our Sleeper Scrap of the card between Raphael Assuncao and Victor Henry.

There was one major cancellation on the main card, with Askar Askarov vs. Brandon Royval cancelled due to weight-cutting issues from Askarov. You can find Royval’s reaction to the grim news below.

Woke up at 127… before I started the weight cut I heard my opponents not going to make weight. They turned down a catch weight, so it looks like the fight is off. Heartbroken but thank you @tylermintonnutrition for another easy weight cut ?? we stay professional on our end. ??— Brandon (@brandonroyval) October 14, 2022
