This women’s flyweight showdown at UFC 315 features a battle between two skilled fighters with contrasting styles and ambitions. Jéssica Andrade, a former UFC Women's Strawweight Champion, takes on the rising Canadian talent, Jasmine Jasudavicius. Andrade, known for her ferocious power and all-around skill, faces Jasudavicius, a gritty decision machine with strong submissions and a solid ground game. This clash represents a significant step for both women as they look to move up in the rankings.
Andrade, ranked #7 in the flyweight division, is a seasoned veteran with 26 wins and 13 losses. Her powerful knockout ability (10 KO victories) is well-established, as is her submission prowess, with eight finishes by tapout. Andrade is known for her aggressive, pressure-heavy style, making her one of the most dangerous opponents in the division. However, her recent return to flyweight has seen mixed results, including a loss to Natália Silva in September 2024. Andrade is coming off a win against Marina Rodriguez at UFC 300, which she hopes will be a springboard back into title contention.
Jasudavicius, with a record of 13-3, is steadily climbing the ranks with her steady and methodical approach. Currently ranked #9 in the division, she’s coming off an impressive unanimous decision victory over Mayra Bueno Silva at UFC Fight Night: Adesanya vs. Imavov in February 2025. Jasudavicius’s game revolves around control and effective grappling, often wearing down her opponents with her consistent pace and submission attempts. While she doesn’t possess the knockout power of Andrade, her ability to grind out victories and capitalize on mistakes makes her a dangerous underdog.
This fight is likely to come down to whether Jasudavicius can survive the early onslaught from Andrade and impose her grappling game later in the fight. Andrade will look to assert her dominance early, testing Jasudavicius's ability to withstand pressure. If Jasudavicius can take the fight to the ground and avoid Andrade’s powerful strikes, she may be able to frustrate the Brazilian and wear her down over three rounds.
