Jasudavicius (14-4 MMA, 8-3 UFC) will look to rebound from a TKO loss to former title challenger Manon Fiorot at UFC Fight Night 262 this past October. Prior to that, the 36-year-old Canadian was on a five-fight winning streak, including a submission finish of former champion Jessica Andrade at UFC 315.
Silva (19-6 MMA, 5-2 UFC) also looks to return to the win column after suffering a unanimous decision loss to the streaking Maycee Barber at UFC 323 in December. The Brazilian has split her past four appearances, with her most recent win coming in a decision over Dione Barbosa at UFC 319.
