September 18, 2024

A potential strawweight title eliminator is on tap for UFC 310, as Virna Jandiroba will lock horns with Tatiana Suarez on Dec. 7.

Multiple outlets confirmed the pairing following an initial report from Ag.Fight. UFC 310 takes place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The card does not currently have a main event, but it is also expected to include a light heavyweight scrap between Anthony Smith and Dominick Reyes. Suarez and Jandiroba were initially slated to meet last year before the Brazilian withdrew from their bout due to a knee injury.

A former Invicta FC title holder, Jandiroba will take a four-bout winning streak into the matchup with Suarez. Most recently, “Carcara” earned a second-round submission victory against ex-title challenger Amanda Lemos in the UFC on ESPN 60 headliner on July 20. Jandiroba has also earned wins over Lupita Godinez, Marina Rodriguez and Angela Hill during her current winning streak.

Suarez, meanwhile, is undefeated in 10 professional outings. The 33-year-old Milennia MMA product has kicked off her promotional tenure with seven consecutive triumphs, including a second-round submission of Jessica Andrade in her most recent appearance at UFC on ESPN 50 in August 2023.
