Claudia Gadelha vs Marina Rodriguez added to May 2 UFC show

The UFC announced today that Claudia Gadelha vs Marina Rodriguez has been added to UFC on ESPN+ 32 May 2 at the Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City. Claudia is 31 years old from Brazil. She now trains with Mark Henry in New Jersey. She's supposed to be a BJJ whiz. But in her last fight she used Henry's keep away strategy to beat Randa Markos. Then she had knee surgery. she was supposed to fight Alexa Grasso last month. But Alexa missed weight so badly that the Nevada AC cancelled the fight. Marina is 32 years old from Brazil. Her record is 12-0-2 and 2-0-2 in the UFC. She was in the Brazilian Contender Series. Marina is a striker but terrible on the ground. So I would think Claudia would want to take her down. But if Marina could keep it standing, she could pull an upset because Claudia's endurance is not good. And we don't know how injuries have affected her.
