Ariel Helwani of ESPN reported this afternoon that Maryna Moroz vs Veronica Macedo has been added to UFC Fight Night 140 Nov. 17 at Luna Park in Buenos Aires, Argentina. This fight will be at Flyweight. Maryna is 26 years old from Russia. Her record is 8-3 and 3-3 in the UFC. She is a boxer and so is her husband who trains her. All of Maryna's previous fights were at Strawweight. This will be her first fight at Flyweight. I don't know if the change will help her because her main problem is she isn't aggressive enough. She does this keep away strategy that makes her a points fighter. That is not a successful long term strategy. That's why she's 3-3. Maryna will have a significant height advantage. Veronica is 22 years old originally from Venezuela but she lives in Poland. Her record is 5-2-1 and she's 0-2 in the UFC. She hasn't looked good in either of her fights. But she is hot. So I haven't liked what I have seen from either fighter. I would favor Maryna if she is aggressive. But that's a big if.
