Cynthia Calvillo meets Livinha Souza at UFC Sacramento

Cynthia Calvillo will collide with former Invicta FC strawweight champion Livinha Souza at UFC Sacramento on July 13, multiple sources told MMA Fighting following a report by ESPN.

The UFC Fight Night is set to take place at the Golden1 Center in Sacramento, Calif., and air live on ESPN+.

Winner in five of six Octagon appearances, Calvillo (8-1) returns to action five months after defeating Cortney Casey via decision in Phoenix. Her winning streak also includes a first-round submission over Poliana Botelho in Argentina.

Souza (13-1) has won four in a row since losing the Invicta FC belt to Angela Hill in 2016, including a first-round finish over Alex Chambers in her UFC debut last September and a decision against eight-pound overweight Sarah Frota in February.
