Still searching for first UFC win
Ardelean lost to Melissa Martinez via unanimous decision (27-30, 27-30, 27-30) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
This was a strange fight. Ardelean was the more active competitor and closed with a 92-72 edge in significant strikes landed, but it was Martinez who connected on the bigger blows, earning a sweep on the judges' scorecards as a result. It's important to remember Ardelean went 4-5 in her first nine professional fights. She had zero history of success on the regional scene prior to her UFC arrival, so it shouldn't come as much of a surprise that she's struggled at the highest level. A loser in each of her first two bouts with the company, Ardelean needs a win her next time out to ensure her roster spot is safe.

Seeks first UFC win vs. Amanda

ANALYSIS
Ardelean is coming off a loss to Shauna Bannon via split decision in her UFC debut. She'll look to get in the win column in the promotion against a fighter in Amanda who is also seeking her first UFC victory, coming off two losses via split decision. After accepting her first UFC contest just a few weeks out, Ardelean should be more prepared for her second go of it in the octagon and given the two fighters' tendency to take bouts until the decision, this could be an entertaining matchup.
