LAS VEGAS – Irene Aldana is ready for a title shot.
Aldana (13-6 MMA, 6-4 UFC) returns from a 14-month layoff to face Macy Chiasson (8-2 MMA, 6-2 UFC) on Saturday’s UFC 279 pay-per-view main card at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
The Mexican fighter has yet to earn a crack at UFC women’s bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes, but sees big implications with a win over Chiasson.
