UFC strawweight “Quiet Storm” Randa Markos picked up a close win over Jocelyn Jones-Lybarger at UFC Ottawa and now she’s got her eyes set on a new challenge.

During a post-fight interview, a reporter asked Markos if she would be interested in fighting fellow The Ultimate Fighter 20 alumna and Australia’s “Rowdy” Bec Rawlings. The Quiet Storm was enthusiastic about the idea of fighting the Aussie.

“Definitely, I’ve been asking for that fight for a little while,” Markos said during the interview.,“And I would love to fight her if she’s willing to come forward and fight me.”

Markos defeated Jocelyn Jones-Lybarger via decision on the UFC Fight Pass preliminary portion of the Ottawa card.

The win over Jones-Lybarger evened Markos’ UFC record to 2-2 (6-3 overall). Before the Ottawa fight, she dropped a decision to Karolina Kowalkiewicz in December 2015. She lost to Jessica Penne in her octagon debut at the “TUF 20” finale in December 2014, then defeated Aisling Daly four months later to capture her first UFC victory.

Rawlings (2-1 UFC, 7-4 MMA) is coming off back-to-back wins over Seo Hee Ham and Lisa Ellis, who she submitted with a rear-naked-choke late in the first round of their fight.

I’m sure there are plenty of opponents who are waiting in the wings to face Markos, but I like the idea of Markos vs. Rawlings. It would be an interesting fight, especially when it comes to striking.

Rawlings is mainly a striker. In her fight with Ham she landed 90 strikes, 77 of which were significant. Against Jones-Lybarger, Markos landed 116 strikes, including 86 significant strikes.

Markos has good grappling as well, with a purple belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu and three submission wins. Rawlings is no amateur grappler herself, as she has four submission victories.

Both fighters are also tough and can scrap with the best opponents. Rawlings hasn’t been stopped since her second-round knockout loss to Rhiannon Thompson in 2011. Markos, on the other hand, was submitted by Rose Namajunas in the semi-finals of the TUF 20 tournament.

Chances are this fight would stay on the feet for the most part, and go all three rounds.

Besides a fight with Rawlings, Markos said she wants to compete on the August 27 UFC on FOX card in the Rogers Arena of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

On this night, former UFC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis will make his first foray into the featherweight division when he takes on Charles Oliveira while Gareth McLellan takes on Alessio Di Chirico in a middleweight contest. Markos is 5-0 in Canada.
