Jessica-Rose Clark returns to bantamweight, meets Talita Bernardo at UFC 237

Jessica-Rose Clark will return to the bantamweight division and face Talita Bernardo at UFC 237 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on May 11, sources confirmed to MMA Fighting following a report by Combate.

Clark (9-5, 1 no-contest) competed three times under the UFC banner in 2017 and 2018, going 2-1 as a flyweight with wins over Bec Rawlings and Paige VanZant and a loss to Jessica Eye, but moves up to 135 pounds after being deemed “medically unfit” to cut weight for a fight with Andrea Lee in December.
