The Las Vegas-based promotion on Tuesday announced the booking. UFC on ESPN 48 takes place at the O2 in London. A headliner for the card has not been revealed.
McCann had a four-fight winning streak snapped in her last outing, when she suffered a first-round submission defeat to rising flyweight contender Erin Blanchfield at UFC 281 this past November. Prior to that, “Meatball” scored back-to-back spinning back elbow KO/TKO victories over Hannah Goldy and Luana Carolina — both in London. The Cage Warriors veteran is 6-4 over the course of a UFC tenure that began in 2019.
A cast member on Season 28 of “The Ultimate Fighter,” Stoliarenko has struggled in UFC competition with losses in five of her six Octagon appearances. Most recently, the Lithuanian suffered a first-round TKO loss against Chelsea Chandler at UFC Fight Night 211 last October. Stoliarenko’s lone promotional triumph was an armbar submission of Jessica-Rose Clark at UFC 276.
