Sources: Ladd-Eubanks on May UFC Fight Night

A bantamweight matchup between Aspen Ladd and Sijara Eubanks has been added to a UFC Fight Night event on May 18, according to sources.

The event will take place at Blue Cross Arena in Rochester, New York, and air on ESPN+. MMAJunkie.com first reported the 135-pound bout.

Ladd (7-0) is considered one of the top prospects in the division. The undefeated 24-year-old was supposed to fight Holly Holm at UFC 235 on March 2, but the bout was canceled.

The California native is 2-0 in the UFC with two finishes.

Eubanks (4-2) is moving up from the 125-pound flyweight division, after experiencing multiple issues making the weight limit in recent years. She is 1-0 in the UFC.

Ladd holds a prior win over Eubanks. The two met at bantamweight at Invicta FC 21 in 2017. Ladd won via unanimous decision.

The UFC has not announced a main event for the May 18 card.
