Michelle Waterson and Angela Hill will close the show on Sept. 12.
MMA Fighting confirmed with people with knowledge of the booking that the strawweight contenders have been promoted to the main event of UFC Vegas 10 following the postponement of the originally scheduled Glover Teixeira vs. Thiago Santos headliner. Teixiera tested positive for COVID-19, forcing his withdrawal, and his bout with Santos will now take place on Oct. 3.
Moved up from the co-main event, Waterson and Hill’s three-round fight will now be a five-round affair.
