In the present format, there are four weight divisions for female competitors and eight divisions for male fighters in the UFC. Every division has a UFC champion, and once they take the belt, they have to compete to keep it. Women compete exclusively in the Strawweight class; more recently, they have also entered the Bantamweight, Flyweight, and Featherweight divisions. Men compete in all eight other divisions instead of the strawweight class.

As per a post shared on X by MMA Mania, Molley McCann is set to make her return with her first fight in the strawweight division, the fight has been booked.
