History will take place at LFA 16 with the first title defense since the promotion debuted in January.

Women’s flyweight champion Andrea Lee will take on Davina Maciel in the headliner of the AXS TV-televised event July 14 at The Bomb Factory in Dallas.

Lee (7-2) will enter the bout on a three-fight winning streak and make her return to LFA after one fight away. “KGB” won the inaugural title in February when she submitted Heather Bassett with an armbar at LFA 4. Lee’s most recent bout took place in Invicta FC, winning a split decision over Liz Tracy in May at Invicta FC 23.

Maciel (6-1) will make her LFA debut also riding a three-fight winning streak after an armbar submission in April under the Extreme Warriors International banner. Four of Maciel’s six victories have come by way stoppage during her 12-year professional career.
