The 32-year-old featherweight is set to fight Rick Glenn at UFC 208 in his hometown of Brooklyn, N.Y. The promotion announced the news on Tuesday.
Nover is looking to get back in the winning column, as he’s coming off back-to-back decision loses to former UFC bantamweight champion Renan Barao and Zubaira Tukhugov. ‘The Filipino Assassin’ is 1-2 in his latest UFC stint.
Meanwhile, Glenn is out to get his first UFC win after having an unsuccessful promotional debut. Back in September, Glenn stepped in on short notice to replace an injured Abel Trujillo and fight veteran Evan Dunham in a lightweight bout.
