Zhang Weili is ready for the challenge that the unbeaten Tatiana Suarez will bring to the table at UFC 312.
Weili (25-3 MMA, 9-2 UFC) will attempt to make the third defense of her second strawweight title reign when she meets Suarez (10-0 MMA, 7-0 UFC) in the co-headliner of Saturday’s co-headliner at Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney (ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPN2, ESPN+).
Suarez has been pegged as a future title challenger and likely future champion since she won “The Ultimate Fighter” reality series in July 2016. Her climb to the top has been hindered by injuries and layoffs, but now the opportunity is here.
