After fight-day cancellation, Gillian Robertson vs. Miranda Maverick rebooked for UFC 260

Gillian Robertson vs. Miranda Maverick is once again on the books.

The pair of women’s flyweights have been rebooked for UFC 260 on March 27 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The matchup originally was scheduled for Feb. 13 at UFC 258, but Robertson caught a non-COVID-19 illness on fight day, forcing the bout to be scrapped hours before the event.

Both fighters confirmed the booking on their Instagram pages Wednesday after an initial report from Fighter Path.

Robertson (9-5 MMA, 6-3 UFC), 25, competed in December when she lost a unanimous decision to Taila Santos and her two-fight winning streak was snapped. Robertson, a Din Thomas pupil, enters UFC 260 having won four of her most recent six outings.

As for Maverick (8-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC), the former Invicta FC standout made her promotional debut at UFC 254 in October. She defeated Liana Jojua when the fight was stopped in between the first and second rounds due to a laceration.

The UFC 260 lineup now includes:

  • Champ Stipe Miocic vs. Francis Ngannou – for heavyweight title
  • Champ Alexander Volkanovski vs. Brian Ortega – for featherweight title
  • Jimmy Crute vs. Anthony Smith
  • Modestas Bukauskas vs. Michal Oleksiejczuk
  • Hannah Goldy vs. Jessica Penne
  • Vicente Luque vs. Tyron Woodley
  • Thomas Almeida vs. Sean O’Malley
  • Marcin Tybura vs. opponent TBA
  • Abu Azaitar vs. Marc-Andre Barriault
  • Jamie Mullarkey vs. Khama Worthy
  • Omar Morales vs. Shane Young
  • Miranda Maverick vs. Gillian Robertson
