Kline is scheduled to fight Amanda Ribas in a strawweight clash at UFC Oklahoma City on July 18 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Kline is keen on stopping Ribas inside the distance. “The Archangel” believes she won’t be very far from the title picture with a finish over Ribas. The 25-year-old wants to start calling out Top 5-ranked strawweight contenders if she finishes Ribas.
Looking to Make a Statement
“I want to finish Amanda… Finishing Amanda puts me very close [to the title],” Kline told Home of Fight. “I know Tatiana [Suarez] just won her fight, I know Gillian Robertson just won her fight. This division is wide open for me to take it and run with it. And that’s exactly what I plan on doing. I really want to get close to the Top 5, and I want to start taking out names and showing people that this is my division.”
Kline (9-1) suffered her lone professional loss against Jasmine Jasudavicius in her UFC debut in 2024. Kline has since racked up three consecutive wins with two finishes. Meanwhile, Ribas (12-7) has now dropped three in a row, getting stopped inside the distance in her last two.
