\n
\nAt
\nUFC Edmonton<\/a>, Jasmine
\nJasudavicius<\/a> defeated Erin
\nBlanchfield<\/a> in the co-main event. Competing in her home
\ncountry, Jasudavicius (16-4, 10-3 UFC) controlled the first two
\nrounds before Blanchfield rallied in the third. All three judges
\nscored the fight 29-28 for the Canadian, dropping Blanchfield to
\n14-3 overall and 8-2 in the UFC.<\/p>\n

On Friday, Liz
\nCarmouche<\/a> and Jena Bishop<\/a>
\nmet again in the
\nPFL Chicago<\/a> headliner. After suffering a third-round knockout
\nagainst “Girl-Rilla” in their first encounter, Bishop (12-3, 6-3
\nPFL) earned a unanimous decision over Carmouche (26-9, 6-2 PFL) to
\nclaim the inaugural PFL women\u2019s flyweight championship.<\/p>\n

Jasudavicius rises to No. 6, while Blanchfield falls from fifth to
\nseventh, with Dakota
\nDitcheva<\/a> moving into the No. 5 spot. Bishop climbs to No. 8,
\nand Carmouche drops to No. 9.<\/p>\n

In the UFC Edmonton welterweight headliner, Mike Malott<\/a>
\n(15-2-1, 8-1 UFC) knocked out Joaquin
\nBuckley<\/a> with a well-timed knee at 2:32 of Round 2. \u201cProper\u201d
\nreplaces former UFC welterweight champion Kamaru
\nUsman<\/a> at No. 15.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Sherdog\u2019s panel voted to reduce the women\u2019s bantamweight
\nrankings to 10 places and eliminate the Contenders section because
\nof the division\u2019s limited depth.<\/p>\n

Former UFC women\u2019s bantamweight champion Julianna
\nPena<\/a> also exits due to inactivity. “The Venezuelan Vixen” last
\ncompeted in MMA in June 2025, when Kayla
\nHarrison<\/a> submitted her with a kimura. Pena\u2019s removal moves the
\nfighters below her up one spot, while Jacqueline
\nCavalcanti<\/a> enters at No. 10.<\/p>\n
