Two former UFC women’s flyweight title challengers will square off once again.
Following a report from MMA Ideas, MMA Fighting confirmed that Katlyn Chookagian and Jennifer Maia are lined up for a January 15th rematch.
Chookagian (16-4) got her title shot by beating Maia at UFC 244 in November 2019. She lost by third-round TKO to Valentina Shevchenko at UFC 247, but followed up by thrashing Valentina’s sister Antonina in a lopsided decision. A first-round TKO to Jessica Andrade soon followed, but ‘Blonde Fighter’ has picked up consecutive decision wins over Cynthia Calvillo and Viviane Araujo.
