In what is beginning to look like one of the best cards of the year, UFC 218 just got a female addition in the form of Tecia Torres vs. Michelle Waterson.
ESPN broke the news just moments ago.
UFC 218 takes place from the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan.
In the night’s main event, Max Holloway will look to defend his UFC featherweight title against former UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar. The night’s co-main event is a heavyweight attraction between the rising Francis Ngannou and Alistair Overeem.
Michelle Waterson last fought in April where she lost to Rose Namajunas via submission in a featured bout on the UFC on FOX 24 card.
Tecia Torres last saw action defeating the tough Juliana Lima with a second round choke. She is now on a two-fight winning streak.
