The former Invicta FC strawweight champion will welcome ONE Championship veteran Istela Nunes to the Octagon at UFC’s upcoming event in Mexico City on Sept. 21, multiple sources told MMA Fighting following a report by Combate.
Hill (9-7) already fought three times this year, with a decision victory over Jodie Esquibel sandwiched between losses to Randa Markos and Xiaonan Yan.
Nunes (7-0, 1 no-contest) signed with the UFC after going 2-1 under the ONE banner in Asia, scoring decision wins against Mei Yamaguchi and Gina Iniong. Her sole defeat came in a title bout with Angela Lee.
