Combate in Brazil has reported and MMA Fighting has confirmed that Molly McCann vs Priscila Cachoeira has been added to the Mar. 16 UFC show at the O2 in London. This fight will be at Flyweight. Molly is from Liverpool, England and she did well enough in Cage Warriors to make her UFC debut in her home town last May. She lost to Gillian Robertson by rear naked choke. Molly is a striker and I guess she's not very good on the ground. Priscila trains at PVRT in Brazil which is also the home of Jessica Andrade. After going undefeated in the Brazilian regional circuit, she was supposed to make her UFC debut vs Lauren Murphy on the TUF 26 Finale in Las Vegas in December. After some last minute changes to that show, they moved Priscila to the Feb. Brazil show to face Valentina Shevchenko. That fight turned out to be an awful mismatch. Valentina won by second round rear naked choke. And Priscila suffered a knee injury. The most notable thing about that match was the UFC fired ref Mario Yamasaki for not stopping the fight much sooner. These two looked so bad that I don't know if either belongs in the UFC.
