Erin Blanchfield joined the UFC on the strength of two ‘Performance of the Night’ bonus-winning victories under the Invicta banner in 2020. And although she’s yet to earn a bonus inside the Octagon, the 23-year-old is 2-0 fighting with the world’s largest MMA promotion. ‘Cold Blooded’ looks to extend her UFC winning streak to three in a row when she faces the more experienced J.J. Aldrich in the curtain-jerker on Saturday’s UFC Vegas 56 fight card.
Originally signing with the UFC when she was 21, Blanchfield was asked to step in on less than two weeks notice to face featherweight fighter Norma Dumont in a bantamweight battle on April 10th, 2021.
