PARIS – Manon Fiorot had a strange shuffle of opponents for her upcoming fight, but she’s happy with the end result. The rising UFC women’s flyweight contender was originally scheduled to take on former title challenger Katlyn Chookagian on Saturday at UFC Fight Night 209. However, Chookagian (18-4 MMA, 11-4 UFC) was forced to withdraw and was replaced by former UFC strawweight champ Jessica Andrade. Then, just a few weeks after that matchup was announced, Andrade pulled out due to injury, and Chookagian was back in. Not long after the pair of switches, Fiorot (9-1 MMA, 4-0 UFC) suffered an injury of her own, forcing the matchup against Chookagian to get pushed to UFC 280 on Oct
