Ariane Lipski da Silva has a date and venue for her second Professional Fighters League appearance.

Get ready, fight fans—Ariane Lipski da Silva is stepping back into the PFL cage! The UFC veteran and former KSW champion has locked in her second appearance with the Professional Fighters League, set to face Jena Bishop in a flyweight showdown at PFL San Diego on June 27.

Coming off a much-needed win in her PFL debut, Lipski ended a three-fight losing streak by outpointing Sumiko Inaba at PFL Pittsburgh on March 28. The 32-year-old Brazilian, who went 6-8 during her UFC tenure starting in 2019, is looking to build momentum and prove she's a force in the flyweight division. Her opponent, Jena Bishop, is no slouch either. The 40-year-old Alliance Jiu-Jitsu San Diego product has won three of her last four PFL bouts, most recently submitting Borena Tsertsvadze in the first round at PFL Chicago on April 11.

PFL San Diego takes place at the Pechanga Arena, headlined by a featherweight clash between A.J. McKee and Salamat Isbulaev. The card is stacked with talent, including Liz Carmouche vs. Viviane Araujo, Alfie Davis vs. Alexandr Shabliy, and Khasan Magomedsharipov vs. Levy Marroquin. For Lipski, this fight is a chance to showcase her evolution and remind everyone why she was once a champion. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to the sport, this is a matchup you won't want to miss.
