UFC Vegas 69: ‘Andrade vs. Blanchfield’ Live Results and Highlights

By Chris Taylor - February 18, 2023

The Octagon returns to Nevada for tonight’s UFC Vegas 69 event, an eleven-bout fight card headlined by Jessica Andrade vs. Erin Blanchfield.

Blanchfield (10-1 MMA) was originally slated to meet Taila Santos (19-2 MMA) in tonight’s headliner. However, Santos was forced to withdraw from the contest last week, and thankfully Jessica Andrade (24-9 MMA) agreed to step in on short-notice and fill the void.

Blanchfield is fresh off her first-round submission win over Molly McCann in November at UFC 281. That victory improved Blanchfield’s current winning streak to seven in a row, with four of those wins coming inside the Octagon.

Meanwhile, former UFC strawweight champion Jessica Andrade last competed at January’s UFC 283 event, where she scored lopsided unanimous decision win over Lauren Murphy. The Brazilian has gone 4-1 since moving up to flyweight, with her lone loss in that time coming against reigning 125lbs queen Valentina Shevchenko.

UFC Vegas 69 is co-headlined by a light heavyweight bout between Jordan Wright and Zac Pauga.

Wright (12-4 MMA) will enter the contest looking to snap a three-fight losing skid. ‘The Beverly Hills Ninja’ most recently competed back in October of 2022, where he suffered a TKO loss to Duško Todorović.

Meanwhile, Zac Pauga (5-1 MMA) will also be looking to rebound, this after suffering a knockout loss to Mohammed Usman in the TUF 30 Finale. Prior to that setback, ‘The Ripper’ had gone a perfect 5-0 in MMA.
