Ultimate Fighting Championship

Chandler was scheduled to face Leah Letson in her UFC debut on October 1, 2022 at UFC Fight Night 211.[13] However, Letson pulled out in late August due to personal reasons and was replaced by Julija Stoliarenko, therefore changing the pairing to a catchweight of 140 pounds.[14] She won the bout via TKO stoppage at the end of the first round.[15] This win earned her the Performance of the Night award.[16]
