The jostling for position in the talent-rich women's bantamweight class will begin early in 2015, as former world title challengers Miesha Tate and Sara McMann meet at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
In the UFC 183 main event, middleweight great Anderson Silva returns to take on Nick Diaz.
Fresh from back-to-back wins over Liz Carmouche and Rin Nakai, Tate hopes to get back in the race for another shot at champion Ronda Rousey with a win over McMann. An Olympic Silver medalist in freestyle wrestling, McMann rebounded from the only loss of her career to Rousey with a hard-fought decision win over Lauren Murphy in August.
