Jessica Andrade’s first UFC women’s strawweight title defense is set.
It may come as a bit of a surprise, but Weili Zhang will be the first woman to challenge the Brazilian’s reign. Zhang is the No. 6-ranked fighter at 115 pounds at the moment. Many believed the likes of Tatiana Suarez and Michelle Waterson were more deserving of the bout.
However, the promotion couldn’t miss out on an opportunity to have a Chinese fighter headline in their upcoming Shanghai card. Especially with a title on the line. Earlier today (Thurs. June 20, 2019), UFC President Dana White shared the first staredown the two women had in China recently.
Check it out here:
Andrade has been on a tear as of late. She’s on a four-fight win streak, the latter of which resulted in her title victory over Rose Namajunas. Andrade slammed Namajunas into the mat with a takedown. The slam actually knocked her out. Now, she is prepared to make her first title defense against the undefeated Zhang.
Zhang is undefeated under the UFC banner, taking out all three of her UFC opponents thus far. She has proven to be a handful when she gets on top of her adversaries on the ground. However, this will be the first true test of Zhang’s career, and in a title bout no less. UFC on ESPN+ 15 goes down from the Shenzhen Universiade Sports Centre Arena in Shenzhen, Guangdong, China on August 31.

On the flip side, Zhang (19-1) is 3-0 under the UFC banner. She holds wins over Danielle Taylor and Jessica Aguilar. In her latest fight, she beat Tecia Torres by decision at the UFC 235 PPV event on March 2, 2019 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Rose Namajunas wants to rematch Jessica Andrade, but not quite yet.
Namajunas’ manager spoke to MMA Fighting today (Tues. June 11, 2019) after reports surfaced that the UFC is finalizing a title bout between Andrade and Weili Zhang in China. Namajunas’ manager, Brian Butler of Suckerpunch Entertainment, confirmed “Thug” is definitely interested in the rematch, but needs time to heal a neck injury first:
“Rose is definitely interested in a rematch [against Jessica Andrade],” Butler said “Her tentative plan is to fight by the end of the year. The UFC was interested in the rematch but she’s not on a timetable where she needs to discuss a date.
“She had an ongoing neck injury prior to the fight and she wants to get herself back to 100-percent and when she steps back in it will be her choice.”
Andrade defeated Namajunas with a second-round slam KO back in May in Brazil. Namajunas dropped the 115-pound title at the show, while also falling victim to one of the most devastating slam KOs in UFC history as well. The news today that Zhang will be getting the next title opportunity comes as a surprise.
There are more deserving candidates such as Tatiana Suarez or Michelle Waterson. However, the UFC seems to have opted to go with Zhang instead.
