Rivalries: Jessica Andrade

Jessica Andrade would like nothing more than to turn back the clock.

The former Ultimate Fighting Championship women’s strawweight titleholder will return to familiar haunts at 115 pounds when she collides with Amanda Lemos in the UFC Fight Night 205 main event on Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Andrade owns a 13-7 record across 20 appearances inside the Octagon. She last competed at UFC 266, where she put away Cynthia Calvillo with punches in the first round of their Sept. 25 pairing.
