Molly McCann to Face Julija Stoliarenko at UFC London on July 22

Molly
McCann’s next Octagon appearance will be on home soil when she
meets Julija
Stoliarenko at UFC London on July 22.

The Las Vegas-based promotion on Tuesday announced the booking.
UFC
on ESPN 48 takes place at the O2 in London. A headliner for the
card has not been revealed.

McCann had a four-fight winning streak snapped in her last outing,
when she suffered a first-round submission defeat to rising
flyweight contender Erin
Blanchfield at UFC 281 this past November. Prior to that,
“Meatball” scored back-to-back spinning back elbow KO/TKO victories
over Hannah
Goldy and Luana
Carolina — both in London. The Cage Warriors veteran is 6-4
over the course of a UFC tenure that began in 2019.

A cast member on Season 28 of “The Ultimate Fighter,” Stoliarenko
has struggled in UFC competition with losses in five of her six
Octagon appearances. Most recently, the Lithuanian suffered a
first-round TKO loss against Chelsea
Chandler at UFC Fight Night 211 last October. Stoliarenko’s
lone promotional triumph was an armbar submission of Jessica-Rose
Clark at UFC 276.
