UFC newcomers Bea Malecki, Duda Santana agree to fight in Stockholm

A featherweight bout between Bea Malecki and Duda Santana has been verbally agreed upon for the upcoming UFC Fight Night event in Stockholm, Sweden, on June 1, multiple sources told MMA Fighting following a report by Combate.

Malecki, who competed on The Ultimate Fighter 28 season last June, holds a 2-0 record as a professional mixed martial artist. “Bad News Barbie” fought once on the UFC reality show, losing a decision to Leah Letson.

Santana, 3-0 as a professional, scored all of her wins under the WOCS banner in 2017. “Cowboyzinha” was signed to face Luana Carolina at the Brazilian version of the Contender Series last August, but was pulled from the card due to visa issues.

UFC Stockholm is scheduled for June 1 at the Ericsson Globe Arena, featuring Alexander Gustafsson vs. Anthony Smith in the main event.
