By the Numbers: UFC on ESPN 60
Virna Jandiroba passed her first main event test with flying colors.
The former Invicta Fighting Championships champ secured her fourth straight victory in the UFC on ESPN 60 headliner, as she submitted former strawweight title challenger Amanda Lemos with an armbar 4:48 into Round 2 on Saturday night at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. With that, Jandiroba staked her claim to a potential title shot against reigning 115-pound champ Weili Zhang sometime in the near future.
