In her most recent effort at UFC Fight Night 152, Aspen Ladd earned a hard fought decision victory over Sijara Eubanks.

Meanwhile, Germaine de Randamie most recently competed at UFC Fight Night 139 in November of 2018, where she defeated Raquel Pennington via unanimous decision.

UFC Sacramento takes place Saturday July 13 live from the Golden1 Center. The event also features the return of former WEC Champion and fan favorite Urijah Faber. ‘The California Kid’ will be squaring off with Ricky Simon on the evening’s main card.
