On Tuesday, UFC confirmed the addition of an intriguing featherweight contest to the fight card for their upcoming debut event in Brooklyn.
Officially added to UFC 208 this week is a battle of former TUF finalist Phillipe Nover will battle Rick Glenn in an undercard bout on the card headlined by Holly Holm vs. Germaine de Randamie in the first-ever UFC Women’s Featherweight Championship bout.
Nover, who hails from Brooklyn, New York, the site of the UFC 208 PPV, will look to improve his record in the UFC’s 145-pound weight class after fighting north in weight throughout much of his Octagon career.

Ask me to fight at the Barclay's in Brooklyn and I'll walk there from my house. No hotel needed! #BrooklynBoy @ufc @danawhite @seanshelby
