The UFC has added a late addition to their upcoming UFC on ESPN 12 on June 27, as Mara Romero Borella will take on former Invicta FC standout Miranda Maverick. MMA DNA made the initial report of the fight, which will take place at flyweight.
Borella will be making her seventh walk to the octagon and her first walk since joining American Top Team in Coconut Creek, Fla. She is currently riding a three-fight losing streak, as she has dropped fights to Lauren Murphy, Montana De La Rosa and Cortney Casey. Her last win came against Talia Santos in Feb. 2019.
Miranda Maverick will be making her UFC debut after putting her name on the map by picking up three impressive wins in Invicta FC. Two of those wins came against former UFC fighters DeAnna Bennett and Pearl Gonzalez.
The UFC on ESPN 12 card will take place at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas. The event will be headlined by former interim lightweight champion Dustin Poirier and Dan Hooker. Also a fun welterweight matchup between Mike Perry and Mickey Gall will serve as the co-main event.
