One of the top amateur prospects is ready to defend one of her two titles Nov. 19.

Jessamyn Duke (4-1) will defend her Absolute Action MMA title against top ranked Amanda Bell (5-1) at AAMMA Nov. 19 at the “AAMMA Battle Against Breast Cancer” in Florence, KY. Duke confirmed the match on her Facebook today.

Duke won the vacant Tuff-n-uff 145 pound title this past July and has been racked up four straight wins since her last loss to Ashley Evans-Smith. Bell is coming off a TKO loss to top amateur prospect Taylor Stratford in the fourth round of a title fight for the Ultimate Reno Combat title. Before the loss, Bell was on a four fight win streak.

In other women’s matches:

  • Sarah Cook faces Gina Begley in 125 pound battle
  • Alisa Hauschild faces Amy Napier at 120 pounds
  • Norma Reuda faces a yet to be named opponent at 125
  • Septian Johnson faces a yet to be named opponent at 170

No word as of yet if the fight will be streamed online.
