The promotion is currently targeting Eubanks vs. Lauren Murphy for the June 1 UFC Fight Night card in Utica, N.Y., MMA Fighting has learned. The bout, which isn’t signed just yet, would be contested at 125 pounds.
Eubanks (2-2) made it to the finals of the most recent season of “The Ultimate Fighter,” however, she failed to make weight prior to the finale. As a result, Eubanks missed out on a chance to become the inaugural UFC women’s flyweight champion.
Murphy (10-3), a UFC veteran and former Invicta FC bantamweight champion, was also a member of TUF 26.
