By Chris Taylor - November 28, 2020

A women’s flyweight bout between Gina Mazany and Rachael Ostovich takes place on the preliminary card of tonight’s UFC Vegas 15 event.

Gina Mazany

Ostovich will be making her return to action this evening following an eight-month USADA suspension for the banned substance Ostarine. In her most recent effort at UFC on ESPN+ 1, the Hawaiian suffered a submission loss to Paige VanZant. That setback marked the 29-year-olds second in a row, so she knew the stakes were high this evening.

“The plan is to stay in MMA and the UFC,” Rachael Ostovich said at the virtual media day for UFC Vegas 15. “I’m not saying this is my last fight, I just think that another loss—three in a row—that won’t be good. I know how that looks, and I’ve seen people get cut for way less. That’s how I look at things.”
