Paige VanZant has been booked for her first bout of 2016, as the UFC’s announced she’ll face Bec Rawlings on August 27th.

The strawweight bout will be part of UFC on FOX 21, which will be hosted by the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia.

VanZant (6-2) hasn’t fought since December, when she was submitted by Rose Namajunas. More recently, “12 Gauge” had a lengthy run on the “Dancing With the Stars” television show.

Rawlings (7-4), meanwhile, is coming off a decision win over Seo Hee Ham in March.

UFC on FOX 21 will be headlined by a featherweight bout between Anthony Pettis and Charles Oliveira.
