Set for Aug. 6 fight
Granger will take on Cory McKenna on the Aug. 6 UFC card, James Lynch of MMANews.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After a solid start to her UFC career, Granger has struggled in the Octagon recently, losing each of her last two fights. She last fought in November of 2020 but will aim to get back on track in August against McKenna, who is also aiming to bounce back from what was her first career loss to Elise Reed in mid-March. Granger holds major advantages in both height (four inches) and reach (10 inches), so she will likely aim to keep McKenna at a distance.

No-shows loss in Vegas
Granger lost to Ashley Yoder via unanimous decision (26-30, 27-29, 27-29) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
This was a strange, strange fight. The one constant throughout the course of the 15-minute bout was Granger's inability to generate any offense whatsoever. She and Yoder spent nearly the entirety of the first ten minutes of the fight rolling around on the mat accomplishing nothing. The difference between the two women was that Yoder picked up the paced in Round 3 while Granger remained stationary. It's a bad look for a fighter who entered as a hefty -165 favorite. Yoder had really struggled of late and Granger had nothing for her. There's not much to get excited about here.
