A women’s bantamweight fight between Lina Lansberg and Leslie Smith has been added to UFC Fight Night 113, which takes place in Glasgow.

The UFC announced the bout earlier today.

Lansberg (7-2) debuted in the UFC riding a six fight win streak, but was stopped by Cris Cyborg in the headliner of UFC Brasilia in a 140lbs catchweight fight. The Swede returned to the octagon around six months later, where she defeated Lucie Pudilova by decision for a second time at UFC London.

Smith (9-7-1) has had an up and down UFC tenure, and has been consistently inconsistent. Since a loss in her promotional debut, the 34-year-old has managed to win one, then lose one. Her losses have came at the hands of Sarah Kaufman, Jessica Eye, and Cris Cyborg while her wins have been over Jessamyn Duke, Rin Nakai, and most recently Irene Aldana.

UFC Fight Night 113 takes place live from the SSE Hydro in Glasgow, Scotland, on July 16, 2017. The card is set to be headlined by a welterweight fight between Gunnar Nelson and Santiago Poniznibbio.
