McCann to fight Nunes at UFC London

Britain's Molly McCann will face Brazil's Istela Nunes in a strawweight bout at UFC London on 22 March.

It is 34-year-old McCann's third bout in the weight class since moving down from flyweight.

She submitted Diana Belbita in February, but suffered defeat by unanimous decision against Bruna Brasil in July.

Nunes, 32, has lost all four of her UFC fights since debuting in the promotion in 2021.

The bout at the O2 Arena joins two more announced by the UFC on Tuesday, including Briton Mick Parkin's heavyweight contest against Poland's Marcin Tybura.

Polish light-heavyweight Jan Blachowicz is also in action against New Zealand's Carlos Ulberg.
