Andrea Lee and Jessica-Rose Clark make a compelling flyweight addition to UFC on FOX 31, the promotion’s final card on the FOX network.
Despite the distractions of a domestic violence incident that saw her assaulted by her coach and husband, UFC flyweight Andrea Lee is getting back in the octagon. The popular KGB Lee has been booked against ‘Jessy Jess,’ Jessica-Rose Clark, at UFC on FOX 31 later this year. The card, which takes place in Milwaukee, marks the final UFC on FOX event before the promotion jumps to ESPN in 2019.

The promotion announced the news Tuesday. Lee (9-2) won her UFC debut at UFC Chile in a Fight of the Night effort against Veronica Macedo earlier this year. That saw her extend her winning streak to five, with fights in Invicta FC and LFA as well. Lee held both the Legacy FC and Legacy Fighting Alliance flyweight titles before jumping to the UFC.
Jessica-Rose Clark (9-5, 1NC) will enter the bout with KGB Lee off a loss to another Jessica, Jessica Eye. Prior to that setback, however, Clark had won her other two UFC bouts, against Bec Rawlings and Paige VanZant. She infamously broke VanZant’s arm during their battle in January.
UFC on FOX 31 takes place December 15 at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. No main event has been announced for the card as of yet.
