Improves to 2-2 with UFC
Ducote defeated Ashley Yoder via unanimous decision (30-27, 29-28, 29-28) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Granted, it came against a far weaker opponent, but Ducote responded well on the heels of her unanimous decision loss to Lupita Godinez this past May. Outside of a token takedown in the closing seconds of Round 1, Emily got the better of what was a 15-minute kickboxing match. While the total strikes numbers were close (119-105 in Ducote's favor), there's zero doubt which woman landed the more impactful blows. A long-time member of both the Bellator and Invicta rosters, Ducote improves to 2-2 in her first four UFC bouts.

Facing off against Yoder
Ducote has drawn Ashley Yoder for a bout at UFC Vegas 81 on Oct. 14, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Ducote, who was most recently defeated by Lupita Godinez, will look to get back on track against Ashley Yoder in October. The 29-year-old American fighter is 1-2 during her time with the UFC.

Can't find range in defeat
Ducote lost to Lupita Godinez via unanimous decision (27-30, 28-29, 28-29) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Originally scheduled to face Polyana Viana, Ducote agreed to battle Godinez on just a couple weeks' notice and paid for it. Entering as a slight +125 underdog, Emily battled her way back into the fight following a slow start, but it was Godinez that landed the more meaningful strikes for the duration of the bout. A long-time member of both the Bellator and Invicta rosters, Ducote, now 29 years of age, has dropped back-to-back unanimous decisions (Godinez, Angela Hill) on the heels of a win over Jessica Penne in her UFC debut last July. She appears to be nothing more than roster depth moving forward.
