News

While Holly Holm was set to make her UFC debut at UFC 181, it appears another fighter will get the opportunity instead.

With the world champion boxer sidelined because of a neck injury, the UFC announced that Ashlee Evans-Smith will make her UFC debut on December 6 against Raquel Pennington.

The 27-year old California native Evans-Smith is 3-0 in her professional career, having last fought at WSOF 10 in June against Marciea Allen in June where she was victorious (by TKO).
