Joseph Pyfer, the lone fighter to be rewarded with a contract on Week 1 of the current season of Dana White’s Contender Series, will make a relatively quick turnaround for his Ultimate Fighting Championship debut.
Pyfer will make his first promotional foray against Alen Amedovski at UFC Fight Night 210 on Sept. 17 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The middleweight booking was first announced during the UFC 277 broadcast on Saturday night. UFC Fight Night 210 is headlined by a bantamweight scrap between Cory Sandhagen and Yadong Song.
