Yazmin Jauregui wouldn’t be surprised if Amanda Lemos upsets Zhang Weili: ‘Lemos is going to give her war’

Yazmin Jauregui thinks the UFC women’s strawweight title could change hands again.

The unbeaten prospect wouldn’t be surprised if come August, there’s a new champion in her division. Brazil’s Amanda Lemos challenges champion Zhang Weili in the co-main event of UFC 292 in Boston on Aug. 19. Keeping a close eye on the division, the matchup was a fight that was on Jauregui’s mind.

“I’ve been thinking about it, even before this fight was booked,” Jauregui told MMA Junkie in Spanish. “I’ve been looking at Lemos and thought she was next to fight for the title because she’s a tough rival. She’s very strong, she has several fights won by KO, she’s got some trajectory now, and I’m really excited to watch this fight.”
