LAS VEGAS – Virna Jandiroba is ready for a shot at the UFC strawweight title. In just her second fight on a UFC main card, Jandiroba (21-3 MMA, 7-3 UFC) was a headliner at UFC on ESPN 60 at the UFC Apex. The Brazilian strawweight took full advantage of her opportunity against Amanda Lemos and picked up her first stoppage win in over three years. Jandiroba executed a slick transition from the back into an armbar submission that forced Lemos (14-4-1 MMA, 8-4 UFC) to tap in Round 2, and ultimately placing her name on the shortlist for title contention. “The fight went in the best scenario that we could imagine,” Jandiroba said through an interpreter at a post-fight news conference
