Rankings Shakeup: Kamaru Usman is back—but is he back in the welterweight top 5?

LAS VEGAS – Amanda Lemos is not done chasing the UFC strawweight title, and with her latest win, she feels she’s back in contention.

Lemos (15-4-1 MMA, 9-4 UFC), a former UFC title challenger, defeated young prospect Iasmin  Lucindo (17-6 MMA, 4-2 UFC) by unanimous decision on the main card of Saturday’s UFC 313. Although it wasn’t the most entertaining win, Lemos got her hand raised and was able to put behind her submission loss to Virna Jandiroba last July.

“I think I’m back in the race, and I feel that I’m back in the race,” Lemos told reporters at the UFC 313 post-fight press conference. “I want to fight as soon as possible to just basically consolidate what I was able to do with this evolution and to go back and go for a championship.”

Lemos thinks she’s made big leaps on her groundwork, patching up some holes that have cost her fights in the past. The 37-year-old Brazilian wants to be active this 2025, so she can quickly position herself in title contention.

“The year started off in the right foot,” Lemos said. “I came in here with a win, showing to the division that I’ve improved where they saw flaws, and I want to fight a couple of times before the end of the year.”
