Tracy Cortez to Face Miranda Maverick at UFC Fight Night on July 20
Jeff Swinger-USA TODAY Sports


Tracy Cortez will meet Miranda Maverick in a flyweight bout at a UFC Fight Night event in July.


Cortez (11-1) and Maverick (13-5) will trade leather on a UFC Fight Night card scheduled for July 20 at the promotion’s Apex in Las Vegas. The matchup was confirmed by both competitors on their social media accounts.

Cortez hasn’t lost a fight since her pro debut in August 2017 and is undefeated in five promotional outings — all decision wins. In her most recent clash, the 30-year-old earned a unanimous decision win over Canadian standout Jasmine Jasudavicius at Noche UFC in September 2023.

Meanwhile, Maverick is riding a two-fight win streak that saw her bounce back from a unanimous decision loss against Jasudavicius. Maverick will enter the Octagon fresh off a unanimous decision win over Andrea Lee in her most recent outing at UFC 298 this past February.
