Milana Dudieva vs. Marion Reneau on tap for UFC Fight Night 99 in Belfast

Next month’s UFC Fight Night 99 event has a new female fight for the lineup.

The bout pits Milana Dudieva (11-4 MMA, 1-1 UFC) against Marion Reneau (6-3 MMA, 2-2 UFC) in a women’s bantamweight matchup.

UFC officials today announced the fight.

UFC Fight Night 99 takes place Nov. 19 at SSE Arena in Belfast, and the entire card streams on UFC Fight Pass, though the bout order hasn’t been finalized. It’s the first of two cards on Nov. 19; UFC Fight Night 100 takes place later in the day in Brazil.

Dudieva, a 27-year-old Ossetian born-Russian fighter, made her UFC debut in 2014 and earned a split-decision victory over Elizabeth Phillips to push her overall winning streak to three fights. However, in her lone 2015 appearance, she suffered a TKO loss to Julianna Pena and then took time off for a pregnancy. She now fights for the first time in 2016.

Reneau, meanwhile, is likely in a must-win situation. She made her UFC debut in 2015 and defeated Alexis Dufresne and Jessica Andrade (earning a “Performance of the Night” bonus) to run her overall running streak to five fights. However, in her two most recent appearance, the 39-year-old has suffered decision losses to ex-champ Holly Holm and Ashlee Evans-Smith.
