Former Invicta FC Champion Added To UFC Fight Night Norfolk
A women’s strawweight division affair is the latest addition to UFC Fight Night Norfolk as Angela Hill is going to be in action against Nina Ansaroff.
Hill (7-3-0) has won just one of two in her second UFC run, defeating Ashley Yoder and suffering a defeat to Jessica Andrade. Hill is a former Invicta Fighting Championships Strawweight Champion, defeating Livia Renata Souza at Invicta FC 17 to win the belt. Hill also competed on the UFC Ultimate Fighter 20, losing in the opening round of the reality show to Carla Esparza.
Ansaroff (7-5-0) has won just one of three fights under the UFC banner, with that lone win coming over the now retired Jocelyn Jones-Lybarger at UFC Fight Night 103. Ansaroff also competed once in the Invicta Fighting Championships, defeating Munah Holland at Invicta FC 7. Ansaroff has only won just one fight in the last four years, which was the aforementioned win over Jones-Lybarger earlier this year.
UFC Fight Night Norfolk takes place on Saturday, November 11 from the Ted Constant Convocation Center in Norfolk, Virginia with Dustin Poirier and Anthony Pettis headlining. Fightful is providing live coverage of the event, which airs live on Fox Sports 1.
