Mackenzie Dern, Nina Ansaroff Agree to Strawweight Bout at UFC Event on April 10

A pivotal strawweight clash between Nina Ansaroff and Mackenzie Dern is in the works for a UFC card on April 10.

ESPN was first to report the matchup. The Las Vegas-based promotion has not formally announced a location or headliner for the event.

The Brazilian jiu-jitsu standout has won three consecutive bouts at 115 pounds, including a unanimous decison over Virna Jandiroba in her last outing at UFC 256 on Dec.
