Roxanne Modafferi is looking to continue her momentum as she prepares for a pivotal matchup in the women’s flyweight division.
“The Happy Warrior” will enter her 41st professional bout against fellow TUF 26 castmate Lauren Murphy this Saturday at UFC on ESPN 11. The top-six battle will take place on the event’s preliminary card.
In her last appearance, Modafferi picked up a unanimous decision win over Maycee Barber at January’s UFC 246 event. The Syndicate MMA product entered the bout as an over 5-1 underdog and was able to bloody up and control her opponent for almost the entire 15 minutes.
