Jessica Andrade ’s first UFC strawweight title defense will come in enemy territory against a surprising challenger.

Zhang (19-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC) will become the first Chinese fighter to compete for a UFC title when she challenges Andrade (20-6 MMA, 11-4 UFC) for the 115-pound belt at UFC on ESPN+ 15 in August.
