UFC 330 adds Erin Blanchfield vs. Jasmine Jasudavicius

[ASFN Admin]

An important women's flyweight contender fight is set for one of the biggest events of the summer.

Erin Blanchfield will have a semi-home game, as she fights one state away from her home, against Jasmine Jasudavicius at UFC 330. The event takes place Aug. 15 at Xfinity Mobile Arena. The promotion officially announced the matchup on Wednesday.

A New Jersey native, Blanchfield (14-2 MMA, 8-1 UFC) hasn't competed since a November submission of Tracy Cortez. The victory moved her to 2-0 since a March 2024 loss to Manon Fiorot. Between the Cortez and Fiorot fights, Blanchfield defeated Rose Namajunas via unanimous decision.

Canada's Jasudavicius (15-4 MMA, 9-3 UFC) has won six of her most recent seven. Her only loss in that stretch also came against Fiorot. She bounced back in April with a unanimous decision win over Karine Silva.

The UFC 330 lineup includes:​

• Champion Islam Makhachev vs. Ian Machado Garry – for welterweight title
• Champion Mackenzie Dern vs. Gillian Robertson – for women's strawweight title
• Erin Blanchfield vs. Jasmine Jasudavicius
