Jasmine Jasudavicius Targets Natalia Silva Rematch in Toronto
Jasmine Jasudavicius aims for a title shot against Natalia Silva after her fight with Erin Blanchfield on October 17.
Jasudavicius Seeks Title Shot
Jasmine Jasudavicius is set to compete against Erin Blanchfield on October 17 at Rogers Place in Edmonton, Alberta. She views this bout as a crucial step toward a title shot in the women’s flyweight division.
Road to Toronto
With UFC 336 planned for Toronto next year, Jasudavicius hopes a win over Blanchfield will lead to a quick title opportunity on home turf. She previously lost to current champion Natalia Silva in her second UFC fight in 2022. Silva won the vacant title at UFC 332 after Valentina Shevchenko relinquished it due to injury.
Recent Performance
Jasudavicius (15-4) is coming off a victory against Karine Silva, which followed a loss to Manon Fiorot that ended her five-fight winning streak. She believes that a win against Blanchfield will justify a rematch with Silva, emphasizing her desire to compete actively and challenge for the belt in Canada.
