Cynthia Calvillo vs Livinha Souza added to July 13 UFC show

Today Brett Okamoto of ESPN reported and Guilherme Cruz of MMA Fighting confirmed that Cynthia Calvillo vs Livinha Souza has been added to UFC on ESPN+ 13 July 13 at Golden1 Center in Sacramento, CA. This fight is at Strawweight. Cynthia is 31 years old from Sacramento. So obviously she wants to fight in her home town. Her record is 8-1 and 5-1 in the UFC. She announced recently that she left Team Alpha Male. Her coach Justin Buchholtz also left TAM but he isn't affiliated with a gym right now. So I'm sure she is training with him but I don't know where. She came off a drug suspension and won her latest fight over Cortney Casey. This will be a tougher fight. Livinha is 28 years old from Sao Paulo, Brazil. She is a former Invicta Strawweight Champion. Her record is 13-1 and 2-0 in the UFC. She was supposed to fight Carla Esparza in April but pulled out due to injury. That's the second time she had to pull out of a fight. And she won her last fight over Sarah Frota by split decision. She will have to be at her best in this fight because Cynthia is no pushover. Whover wins could be headed towards a title shot.
