Mariya Agapova to face Shana Dobson at August 22 UFC event

UFC flyweight Mariya Agapova impressed during her promotional debut at UFC Fight Night: Eye vs. Calvillo last weekend. There she took less than two rounds to submit Hannah Cifers with a rear naked choke.

It seems like the fighter from Kazakhstan impressed the UFC’s matchmakers, too. According to MMA Fighting the 23-year-old American Top Team product has been booked to face TUF alum Shana Dobson at the currently unnamed UFC event scheduled to take place on August 22nd.

Shana ‘Danger’ Dobson is 3-4 as a pro and is currently on a three-fight losing skid, after dropping decisions to Lauren Mueller and Sabina Mazo and getting knocked out by Priscilla Cachoeira.
