Wednesday Fight Update

 

Two bouts are now set for UFC 191 in Las Vegas on September 5, with the featherweight division and the women's bantamweight class both being represented at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.

Fresh from a gutsy effort against Holly Holm earlier this year, Ultimate Fighter 18 semifinalist Raquel Pennington returns to the Octagon for a pivotal meeting with former world title challenger Liz Carmouche.

Plus, Brazil's Tiago Trator will step up on short notice to replace the injured Andre Fili in a 145-pound matchup against the always exciting Clay Collard.

Tickets for UFC 191, which is headlined by the flyweight championship rematch between Demetrious Johnson and John Dodson, are on sale now.
 
Also announced Wednesday was the UFC's return to the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida, which will take place on December 19. Bouts for the FOX-televised event will be announced.
