An interesting flyweight fight is heading to the UFC’s expected return to Houston.
Andrea Lee and Lauren Murphy will square off on the yet-to-be-announced Feb. 8 card which is being targeted for the Texas city. Both fighters announced the bout over their social media accounts, after a report from MyMMANews.
The 30-year-old Lee (11-3 MMA, 3-1 UFC) isn’t wasting much time trying to shake off her first UFC loss. Lee dropped a split decision to Joanne Calderwood at UFC 242, which ended a streak in which she won her first three UFC bouts and seven overall.
Murphy (11-4 MMA, 3-4 UFC), meanwhile, has proven to be a dependable competitor over the years, always a tough out win or lose. The MMA Lab competitor is coming off a third-round TKO win at UFC on ESPN 5, which gave her two wins in her past three fights.
