Alex Caceres vs. Masio Fullen added to UFC on FOX 18

Although no weight class was originally announced, UFC officials confirmed with MMA Fighting that the bout will take place in the featherweight division.

Caceres (10-8-1NC) will be moving up a weight class to meet the 28-year-old Mexican fighter. Caceres finds himself in a must win situation as he’s currently on a three-fight losing streak inside the octagon. Prior to that, Caceres was on a five-fight wining streak and was ranked No. 11 in the UFC’s bantamweight division. Caceres last competed at UFC Fight Night 68 in June where he lost via knockout to Francisco Rivera.

A member of The Ultimate Fighter: Latin America, Fullen (10-5), is coming off a submission loss to Makwan Amirkhani back at UFC Fight Night 69 in June.
