The line-up for UFC Fight Night 82 continues to grow, as the promotion has booked a bantamweight fight between Marion Reneau and Ashlee Evans-Smith for the February 21st card.

Reneau (6-2) will be competing for the first time since last July when she was decisioned by now reigning champ, Holly Holm. The 38 year-old has gone 2-1 in the UFC to date.

Evans-Smith (3-1) was choked out by Raquel Pennington in her last bout, and hasn’t competed since December, 2014. The 28 year-old was making her UFC debut.

UFC FN 82 will be hosted by Pittsburgh’s Consol Energy Center. In the main event Donald Cerrone will take on welterweight Tim Means.
