Alexis Dufresne

The 11-bout lineup for next month’s UFC 182 lineup is complete with the addition of a women’s bantamweight fight between Alexis Dufresne (5-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) and Marion Reneau (4-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC).

UFC officials today announced the new addition, while also finalizing the complete broadcast plans for the event.

UFC 182 takes place Jan. 3 at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena.

Featuring a light-heavyweight title fight between champ Jon Jones and challenger Daniel Cormier, the five-fight pay-per-view main card kicks off at 10 p.m. ET and also includes Donald Cerrone vs. Myles Jury, Nate Marquardt vs. Brad Tavares, Louis Gaudinot vs. Kyoji Horiguchi and Josh Burkman vs. Hector Lombard.

Earlier in the night, FOX Sports 1 features four fights at 8 p.m. ET with Danny Castillo vs. Paul Felder, Marcus Brimage vs. Cody Garbrandt, Jared Cannonier vs. Shawn Jordan and Rodrigo Damm vs. Evan Dunham.

And the night kicks off with two fights on UFC Fight Pass at 7 p.m. ET, including Omari Akhmedov vs. Mats Nilsson and Dufresne vs. Reneau.

Dufresne is a Team Quest fighter and jiu-jitsu specialist who made her UFC debut in July. Following a bit of a tedious affair, “Sneaky Zebra” Dufresne was handed a decision loss to Sarah Moras.

Meanwhile, “The Bruiser” makes her UFC debut on the strength of a three-fight winning streak that includes three wins by stoppage, all of which came in the first round.
