UFC 300 has gained another pair: Jessica Andrade and Marina Rodriguez. The two female fighters are the latest talents to join the historic card of the promotion, which is set for April 13 at T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada.
Andrade will be reentering the cage after the latest victory she gained from Mackenzie Dern via TKO at UFC 295 last November. It was a redeeming win for the female fighter after experiencing three consecutive losses in the five matches she had in 2023, with two being submission losses.
Rodriguez will also be coming back with fairly the same experience. Prior to her TKO win over Michelle Waterson-Gomez last September, the No. 6-ranked women’s strawweight fighter had a tough start in her 2023 after being defeated by Virna Jandiroba last May. In her last fight in 2022, Rodriguez fell short in her match against Xiaonan Yan, which ended up with a split decision loss.
With the addition of the two, here is the updated lineup of the UFC 300 card.
- BMF title: Justin Gaethje vs. Max Holloway
