We can pencil in a new lightweight bout for the upcoming UFC 209 pay-per-view event scheduled to go down in March.
UFC officially confirmed a 155-pound bout between prospects Lando Vannata and David Teymur for their show on 3/4 in Las Vegas.
TUF 22 competitor Teymur has racked up back-to-back wins inside the Octagon in recent months, while Vannata is coming fresh off of his “Knockout of the Night” performance at the recent UFC 206 pay-per-view.
Expected to be headlined by Mark Hunt vs. Alistair Overeem, pending Hunt’s legal situation with the UFC, the UFC 209 pay-per-view goes down live from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday, March 4th.
