A third female bout has been added to XFC 25 in Albuquerque, NM on Sept. 6th.
Both coming off tough losses, Heather Clark and Brianna Van Buren will square off in strawweight battle.
Clark (5-4) is coming off a split decision loss to Felice Herrig at Bellator, which saw Clark injure her arm. She also lost a decision to XFC title contender Stepahnie Eggink at XFC last December.
Van Buren (1-1) is coming off a decision loss to Eggink at XFC this past April. She won her pro debut to Charlene Gellner by KO last October and was undefeated as an amateur.
The fight will be one of three female fights that will be televised on AXS TV, which includes hometown fighter Angelica Chavez taking on Stephanie Skinner, and the XFC flyweight title match between Eggink and Angela Magana.
