Tonya Evinger’s next fight has been set.

It should be noted that the 40-year-old is the oldest female fighter on the UFC roster.

UFC Austin (UFC Fight Night 126) is set to take place on February 18, 2018, at Frank Erwin Center in Austin, Texas.

The main card will air on FOX Sports 1 while the preliminary card will be split broadcasted on FOX Sports 1 and the promotion’s streaming service, UFC Fight Pass.

Donald Cerrone vs. Yancy Medeiros in a welterweight bout will serve as the main event. Derrick Lewis vs. Marcin Tybura in a heavyweight bout will likely be the co-main event. The promotion will be adding more bouts to the lineup of the event in the coming weeks. Here is the updated card:

Donald Cerrone vs. Yancy Medeiros
Derrick Lewis vs. Marcin Tybura
Ray Borg vs. Brandon Moreno
Sage Northcutt vs. Thibault Gouti
