Handles late-notice opponent
Jasudavicius defeated Fatima Kline via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Denver.
ANALYSIS
Credit Jasudavicius for recognizing a weakness in her opponent and exploiting it. Jasmine is typically not known for her wrestling, but it became apparent early on that Kline's grappling game simply wasn't up to par in her late-notice UFC debut. Jasudavicius fired off six takedown attempts, landing four. She racked up 7:48 worth of control time and seemed to be able to drag Kline to the mat whenever her opponent was gaining momentum on the feet. Now 5-2 in her UFC career, Jasmine's greatest opponent at the moment is her age. She turned 35 years old in March and will have to fight frequently if she hopes to continue her climb up the rankings.

Will face new opponent
Jasudavicius won't face Viviane Araujo (undisclosed) in a flyweight fight at UFC Denver on July 13 due to undisclosed reasons. Instead, she will take on Fatima Kline, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Jasudavicius will face a new opponent after Araujo's decision to step down from the bout. The 35-year-old Canadian began her 2024 by submitting Priscila Cachoeira and will aim to add another win to her column against an opponent that's yet to lose in her professional career. It's worth noting the 35-year-old has won three of her most recent four outings.

Scheduled against Araujo
Jasudavicius is scheduled to compete against Viviane Araujo in a flyweight fight at the UFC's July 13 event, per Nolan King of MMAJunkie.com.
ANALYSIS
Jasudavicius has an opportunity to enter the UFC's flyweight rankings by defeating Araujo, who is currently ranked No. 10 and trying to prevent a losing streak that could drop her from them. The 35-year-old Canadian began her 2024 by submitting Priscila Cachoeira.

Gets right back in win column
Jasudavicius defeated Priscila Cachoeira via submission (anaconda choke) at 4:21 of Round 3 at UFC 297 on Saturday in Toronto.
ANALYSIS
Easy work. Not only did Jasmine secure one of the easiest victories of her career, but she also walked away with 30 percent of Cachoeira's purse after weight cutting issues on Cachoeira's end forced the fight to be moved from flyweight to bantamweight. Jasmine finished with a 326-26 edge in total strikes landed. The +300 edge was the most in a women's fight in UFC history and the third-most overall. It was a much needed bounce-back performance for Jasudavicius on the heels of her unanimous decision loss to Tracy Cortez last September. Set to turn 35 years of age in early-March, the Canadian needs to continue her winning ways moving forward. In the meantime, she'll cash in an extra $50,000 after getting selected for Performance of the Night honors.
