Tonya Evinger’s next fight has been set.

A women’s bantamweight bout between Tonya Evinger and Marion Reneau was officially announced by UFC officials on Tuesday afternoon.

Evinger, who is the former Invicta FC champion, is slated to return to the Octagon while competing in a weight class that she is used to fighting at following her promotional debut at featherweight when she faced current champion Cris Cyborg at UFC 214 in July.

As seen in the fight, it didn’t go as planned for her as she suffered a third-round TKO loss in the bout, snapping a 12-fight unbeaten streak.

On the flip side, Reneau is riding a three-fight unbeaten streak of her own with her most recent win coming by a third-round TKO of Talita Oliveira at UFC Fight Night 115 in September.

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