UFC Sao Paulo: Randa Markos takes on Marina Rodriguez
Canadian Randa Markos (8-6-0) has been added to Sao Paulo’s UFC Fight Night 137 card where she will welcome Brazilian prospect Marina Rodriguez (10-0-0) in a strawweight contest.
“The Quiet Storm,” 30, is 4-5-0 in the octagon since emerging from the TUF 20 show in 2014. She is looking to bounce back from a decision loss to a decision loss to Nina Ansaroff at UFC on FOX 30 in July.
