Dustin Jacoby books return fight in UFC against Justin Ledet on Oct. 31

Fresh off a win on the Contender Series, Dustin Jacoby has booked his first fight back in the UFC as he takes on Justin Ledet at an upcoming card scheduled for Oct. 31.

Multiple sources confirmed the matchup to MMA Fighting on Thursday with agreements in place from both athletes. The bout was initially reported by MMA Junkie.

Following an 0-2 run in the UFC between 2011 and 2012, Jacoby continued fighting in MMA with stints in numerous promotions including World Series of Fighting and Bellator. Eventually, Jacoby decided to commit to a kickboxing career, where he primarily competed in GLORY with 15 fights over four years.
