Promotion officials confirmed the strawweight bout following an initial report from the Los Angeles Daily News. UFC 199 takes place at the Forum in Los Angeles and is headlined by a middleweight title rematch between Luke Rockhold and Chris Weidman.

Andrade, 24, posted a 4-3 record at bantamweight since signing with the Las Vegas-based promotion in 2013. Most recently, “Bate Estaca” suffered a second-round submission loss to Raquel Pennington at UFC 191 last September.

Penne, meanwhile, hasn’t competed since taking a brutal beating at the hands of Joanna Jedrzejczyk in a strawweight title bout last June at UFC Fight Night in Berlin. The former Invicta FC titlist is 12-3 as a professional, including a split-verdict against Randa Markos in her Octagon debut.
