BRASILIA, Brazil – In town to promote for the UFC, women’s bantamweight champion  Ronda Rousey chose to hold off a backstage interview at UFC Fight Night 51 so she could watch a fight between 135-ers  Jessica Andrade and Larissa Moreira Pacheco. Maybe Rousey was scouting her future opposition, which could be Andrade if she continues to deliver performances such as the one at Nilson Nelson Gymnasium in Brasilia, Brazil. Andrade (12-3 MMA, 3-1 UFC) dominated newcomer Pacheco (10-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) on the mat before tapping her out with a guillotine choke in the first round of their main card fight, which streamed live on Fight Pass. Although Andrade was tickled to hear Rousey hung around, she’s not going to follow in the footsteps of fellow Brazilian Bethe Correia, who’s made it her mission to fight the champ.
