Few fighters have made their way around the USA TODAY Sports/MMA Junkie rankings over the years like Jessica Andrade .

Then she went down to classes to strawweight, and became champion in one of the sport’s deepest divisions, regardless of gender. Now? Andrade (21-8 MMA, 11-6 UFC) has decided to split the different and go to flyweight. And boy, did she make an impressive debut last Saturday at UFC on ESPN+ 38 in Abu Dhabi
