UFC signs RFA champ Jocelyn Jones-Lybarger to fight Tecia Torres at UFC 194

The popular women's strawweight contender will take on the newly signed Jocelyn Jones-Lybarger at UFC 194 on Dec. 12 in Las Vegas, the UFC announced Friday. Torres was initially supposed to fight Michelle Waterson, who pulled out this week due to a knee injury.

Torres (6-0) has won both of her UFC fights via unanimous decision after falling to Carla Esparza and Randa Markos on The Ultimate Fighter 20. Despite those exhibition defeats, "The Tiny Tornado" has not lost an official pro fight. Torres, 26, is coming off a unanimous decision win over Angela Hill at UFC 188 in June.
