A matchup of lightweight contenders is on tap for the UFC’s Dec. 17 event, as Arman Tsarukyan will lock horns with Damir Ismagulov.
Multiple outlets confirmed the booking following an initial report from EuropSport. The UFC Fight Night card takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas and is headlined by a middleweight scrap between Jared Cannonier and Sean Strickland.
Tsarukyan had a five-bout winning streak snapped in his last outing, when he dropped a five-round verdict against Mateusz Gamrot in the UFC on ESPN 38 headliner on June 25.
