Sara McMann vs. Jessica Eye joins UFC Fight Night card in Las Vegas
A matchup between two top 10 women's bantamweight has been booked with Olympic silver medalist Sara McMann set to face Ohio native Jessica Eye at UFC Fight Night in Las Vegas on May 29.
The new fight was announced during "UFC Tonight" on Wednesday.
McMann will look to get back on track following a tough stretch where she's gone just 1-3 over her last four fights following seven consecutive wins to start her career.
The former Olympian hasn't faced an easy road in the UFC with her last four fights including matchups with former women's champion Ronda Rousey as well as current champ Miesha Tate.
McMann last fought in August 2015 when she lost by submission to Amanda Nunes in the first round.
Eye will also look to stop a two-fight losing skid when she returns in May after falling in back-to-back bouts to Tate and Julianna Pena.
The fight between McMann and Eye joins a growing UFC Fight Night card taking place at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas with bantamweights Thomas Almeida and Cody Garbrandt headlining the show on May 29 airing live on FS1.
