Suddenly, that September 3 bill has gotten a lot more exciting.
Aisling Daly will fight at UFC Hamburg and Michelle Waterson will step into the octagon with her.
The Irish MMA hero hasn't fought since last October but, alas, she has found an opponent.

Waterson, the 30-year-old American, hasn't been in action since July last year but she has been training along with Yair Pantera Rodriguez.

Daly meanwhile has been preparing for this event for some time now.
The Dubliner said six weeks ago that she had her eye on Hamburg and her ambitions are now a reality as she readies to fly to Germany and back to the forefront of MMA fans' minds.

Waterson's impressive UFC record stands at 13-4 and the nicknamed Karate Hottie has a keenness for submissions.
September 3 will test her resolve though. Shit just got real.
