HIGH STAKES LIGHTWEIGHT MATCHUP! Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) returns to UFC APEX on Sat., Sept. 23, 2023, with a high stakes 155-pound showdown as No. 6-ranked contender, Rafael Fiziev, takes on No. 7-seeded Mateusz Gamrot. In UFC Vegas 79’s co-main event, No. 12-ranked Featherweight contender, Bryce Mitchell, steps back into the Octagon against No. 13-seeded Dan Ige.
Spencer dominated this entire fight from the opening bell to the final strike. She utilized her strong grappling game to pin Letson up against the cage and smash her with short elbows and knees inside. Spencer was able to drag the action to the canvas in the third where she gained full mount and finished the action with hard elbows and punches.

Spencer, 30, gets back in the win column after dropping consecutive decision losses to Amanda Nunes and Norma Dumont. It may take a few more of these finishes to position Spencer for another shot at Nunes’ women’s featherweight title, but she’s clearly one of the best 145-pound female fighters in the world today.
