Added to Denver card
Stevenson will take on Maycee Barber in a flyweight matchup at UFC Denver on Nov. 10, Brett Okamoto of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Stevenson debuted against the highly-regarded prospect Polyana Viana at UFC Belem in February, but fell via submission in enemy territory. She'll now look to right the ship against the 20-year-old Barber, who last competed on Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series and picked up her third-straight stoppage victory. Stevenson will concede both height and reach advantages to the much younger Barber.

To face Polyana Viana in February
Stevenson will take on Polyana Viana at UFC Belem on February 3 in Brazil, Guilherme Cruz of MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Stevenson enters this bout having won her previous five MMA bouts, but recently competed as a flyweight on the TUF season, and lost to Sijara Eubanks in her first fight. For her debut on the UFC stage, Stevenson will move down to 115 pounds, and holds a career record of 6-4 as a professional. On the other side, Viana is 9-1, and comes in with a five-fight win streak, including a victory over Amanda Ribas. She is a former Jungle Fight strawweight champion, and should present a formidable opponent for Stevenson.
