Megan Anderson returns to MMA competition inside of the Octagon this coming May.
On Tuesday, The Canadian Press reported that a women’s featherweight bout between Anderson and octagon newcomer Felicia Spencer is on tap for the UFC Rochester event.
Anderson made her promotional debut when she lost to former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Holly Holm at the UFC 225 pay-per-view event. Coming into this fight, the former Invicta FC featherweight champion was on a four-fight winning streak.
Her latest fight ended in controversy as she beat Cat Zingano by first-round TKO due to an eye injury at the UFC 232 pay-per-view event last December.
On the flip side, Spencer will vacate her Invicta FC title in order to make the jump to the UFC. She has finished four of her six wins and is fresh off a win by submission over Pam Sorenson in November.
UFC Rochester is set to take place on Saturday, May 4, 2019, at Blue Cross Arena in Rochester, New York. The main card will air on ESPN+. The preliminary card will air ESPN+.
A welterweight bout between former UFC lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos and former interim lightweight title challenger Kevin Lee will headline the show. Here’s the updated card:
Rafael dos Anjos vs. Kevin Lee
Sijara Eubanks vs. Aspen Ladd
Zak Cummings vs. Trevin Giles
Grant Dawson vs. Mike Trizano
Patrick Cummins vs. Ed Herman
Megan Anderson vs. Felicia Spencer
