Top-ranked Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Strawweight contenders Claudia Gadelha and Jessica Aguilar will battle this Saturday (August 1, 2015) at UFC 190 inside HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Despite being seen by many as one of the best 115-pounds female fighters in the world, Gadelha was not on The Ultimate Fighter (TUF), which forced her to work up the ranks. That was going just fine until she lost a split decision to current division champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk, and she's now more than eager for a rematch.
Similarly, Aguilar was actually ranked No. 1 in the world before UFC introduced the Strawweight division to its roster.
