One of these two rising Ultimate Fighting Championship flyweights will likely reach the top 10 after a win in New York.
The news first broke on Thursday morning from Erin Blanchfield’s Instagram page, where she announced she would be facing off against Molly McCann (13-4) on Nov. 12. The two flyweights will throw down inside Madison Square Garden in New York, and they will likely be positioned on the main card of UFC 281. McCann confirmed this shortly after its announcement, while also stating she has signed an eight-fight contract with the UFC as well.
