The UFC has added a flyweight bout to its November 28 event. That comes in the form of Rachel Ostovich vs. Gina Mazany, with both fighters badly in need of a win.
MMA Junkie was first to report the pairing, which will see Ostovich (4-5) fighting for the first time in 2020. The Hawaiian is looking to snap back-to-back losses against Paige VanZant and Montana De La Rosa. She’ll also be returning to action for the first time since a USADA suspension stemming from a contaminated supplement.
Mazany (6-4) is 1-3 across her last four fights, most recently coming off a loss to Julia Avila in May. That fight saw her stopped in just 22 seconds. Prior to that, she’d actually been out of the UFC, picking up a win in King of the Cage against Valerie Barney.
In her first run with the UFC, Mazany went 1-3, with the lone win coming against Wu Yanan in 2017. That fight had Mazany upsetting the Chinese fighter in Shanghai.
The UFC’s November 28 card does not yet have an official event name/designation or location announced. The promotion returns to “Fight Island” later this month, for an extended stay.
The event currently features the following bouts:
Curtis Blaydes vs. Derrick Lewis
Norma Dumont vs. Ashlee Evans-Smith
Josh Parisian vs. Parker Porter
Gina Mazany vs. Rachael Ostovich
