Today, the UFC confirmed a UFC 263 women’s bantamweight matchup between Sweden’s No. 11 Pannie Kianzad and Canadian Alexis Davis.
“Banzai” (14-5-0), 35, has a three fight decision win streak going. A win over a former title contender like Davis would be her biggest victory.
Meanwhile, “Ally-Gator” (20-10-0), 36, fought for the title in 2014, losing to then champion Ronda Rousey. She recently snapped a three fight losing skid with a dominant decision over Sabrina Mazo in February at UFC Vegas 20.
