Lina Lansberg vs. Leslie Smith added to UFC Fight Night 113 in Scotland

July’s UFC Fight Night 113 event has a new women’s bantamweight addition.

Officials today announced a fight between Lina Lansberg (7-2 MMA, 1-1 UFC) and Leslie Smith (9-7-1 MMA, 3-3 UFC).

UFC Fight Night 113 takes place July 16 at SSE Hydro in Glasgow, Scotland. The card airs on FS1 following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass, though the lineup hasn’t been finalized.

Lansberg, a 35-year-old Swedish muay Thai fighter, went 6-1 to open her career and score a UFC contract. However, in her promotional debut, she had the unenviable task of fighting Cristiane “Cyborg” Justino in a 140-pound catchweight fight, which “Cyborg” won via second-round TKO. However, Lansberg rebounded in March with a close (and bloody) decision victory over Lucie Pudilova.

She now meets Smith, a former Invicta FC title challenger who’s alternated wins and losses during her current six-fight UFC run. The 34-year-old, who’s recently been an outspoken proponent of fighters’ rights, is currently on a 2-1 run with victories over Rin Nakai and Irene Aldana sandwiched around a TKO loss to “Cyborg.”
