A flyweight fight between Erin Blanchfield and J.J. Aldrich is in the works for the upcoming UFC Fight Night card on June 4, per sources confirmed to myself and the legend @MikeHeck_JR Story coming to @MMAFighting— Damon Martin (@DamonMartin) April 12, 2022
Blanchfield is coming off of a win over Miranda Maverick at UFC 269. She was originally supposed to face Maycee Barber before Barber pulled out on short notice.
Blanchfield is regarded as one of the top female prospects in the UFC following an impressive debut against Sarah Alpar last September. The 22-year-old has won five straight, including back-to-back fights during a brief stint with Invicta FC.
Blanchfield’s lone defeat in her young MMA career came against Tracy Cortez in a split decision at Invicta FC 34 before Cortez ended up signing with the UFC herself.
Blanchfield will face a tough test against Aldrich, who is on a bit of a winning streak of her own with three straight victories. She earned a unanimous decision win over Gillian Robertson in her last outing on March 12.
As of the latest UFC rankings update, Blanchfield holds the No. 15 spot in the flyweight division. Aldrich likely needs one more win to have a number next to her name on the list.
Blanchfield and Aldrich are chasing a shot against flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko, who is set to face Taila Santos at UFC 275. The winner could potentially move up in the division and move one step closer to the flyweight title conversation.
The June 4th Fight Night event doesn’t have an official headliner yet but will feature a featherweight matchup between Dan Ige and Movsar Evloev. The event also doesn’t have an official location and venue booked.
