Pulls second straight upset
Lipski defeated Melissa Gatto via split decision (30-27, 28-29, 29-28) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It's Lipski's second upset victory in a span of less than four months. She was nowhere near effective in the final ten minutes of this fight as the opening five, but Lipski never allowed Gatto to sustain any sort of offense. She defended all seven of her opponent's takedown attempts, which almost certainly won her the fight. Lipski is an effective fighter on the feet, particularly in short spurts, but unfortunately she has zero history of defeating better competition over the course of her four-and-a-half years with the company. Now 5-5 in her first ten UFC bouts, expect Lipski to hover around the .500 mark moving forward.

Added to July 1 card
Lipski will take on Melissa Gatto in a flyweight matchup at the UFC event scheduled for July 1 in Las Vegas, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Lipski has won two of her last three but is still below .500 in the UFC, though she has a chance to even out her record here against the 2-1 Gatto. She also has activity in her favor, fighting twice since Gatto last took the Octagon. Lipski lands at a slightly higher volume than Gatto, but also gets hit herself more. Gatto has the edge in both reach (two inches) and offensive wrestling volume.

Easily win as heavy underdog
Lipski defeated JJ Aldrich via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Lipski looked nothing like the fighter that was knocked out in 65 seconds by Priscila Cachoeira last August. A stand-up fighter by trade, Lipski managed to fight off a dozen takedown attempts from Aldrich, which allowed her to dominate this striking exchanges between the two. Lipski has proven to be capable of a strong performance like this every once in a while, but her now 4-5 record in her first nine UFC bouts suggests she is unlikely to replicate this success for an extended period of time moving forward.

Fighting Aldrich on March 11
Lipski will fight JJ Aldrich in a flyweight fight at a UFC event on March 11, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Lipski stands one-inch taller than Aldrich, though the two fighters share the same wingspan. Losing three of her last four fights, Lipski enters the fight extra hungry for a victory. Lipski prefers to stay on her feet more than Aldrich, though the two have similar fighting styles. The two were originally supposed to meet last March, though the fight was ultimately canceled. Now, they finally get another chance to face each other in the Octagon.

Lasts 65 seconds in San Diego
Lipski lost to Priscila Cachoeira via TKO (punches) at 1:05 of Round 1 at UFC on ESPN 41 on Saturday in San Diego.
ANALYSIS
It's been a dreadful last week-plus for Lipski. These two were scheduled to fight seven days ago before she Lipski missed weight by 2.5 pounds and was unable to make the walk on fight night. They finally got together here, and Lipski lasted all of 65 seconds. We'll never find if she had the edge in the grappling department that many expected because she quickly engaged Cachoeira in a wild brawl and found herself knocked out moments later. Weight misses and no-show performances such as this one are the type of things that typically lead to a release. Lipski's 1-3 record in her last four fights dating back to November 2020 doesn't help matters, either.
