Felicia Spencer has been booked to face Cris “Cyborg” tonight at UFC 240, thanks in large part to her impressive, Octagon debut.
Spencer made her way to the UFC this past May, and faced fellow, former Invicta FC featherweight champ Megan Anderson at UFC Rochester. As you can see by watching the video below, it wasn’t long before Spencer put her Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt into action, and scored the first round, submission win.
With the victory, the 28-year-old Spencer moved her pro-MMA record to 7-0.
Here is the complete line-up for UFC 240, which is taking place in Edmonton, Alberta.
