It’s just the second time in UFC history that both parties in a marriage are due to fight on the same card. But unlike when Mark and Montana De La Rosa shared the spotlight at UFC Rio Rancho last February, both JP and Cheyanne will both be making their proper UFC debuts.
“For her and I it doesn’t really change anything,” Buys explained. “All we do is train all day every day… even if one of us isn’t fighting, we train all of the sessions together. We’re each other’s training partners all the time, for every session, so it doesn’t really change anything if one of us is fighting or both of us is.”
To make matters even more unique, the two will be cornering each other, with Cheyanne coaching JP in the second fight on the prelim card, and JP stepping in to support Cheyanne in her bout before the co-main event.
Marital details aside, the two UFC newcomers are both prepared to put their current win streaks on the line, with JP facing Brazilian Bruno Silva in his second bout back at flyweight. But win streaks and records of his past are something Buys said he doesn’t concern himself with.
