Great opportunity for both, Jinh Yu Frey and Kay Hansen

This clash between these two fighters is set to be an entertaining watch. Jinh Yu Frey is a respected name in the MMA world but because she was competing in a lower weight class she never truly became a relevant force.

Now she has the chance to prove that she is capable of taking on the best in the world. For Kay Hansen, Jinh Yu Frey comes as a challenge that can push her up in the ranking. Overall, this is a fun match up which should produce an exciting match.
