Dustin Jacoby vs. Askar Mozharov in the works for UFC event on Aug. 28

A light heavyweight showdown between Dustin Jacoby and Askar Mozharov is currently in the works for the upcoming UFC Fight Night event on Aug. 28.

Multiple sources close to the matchup confirmed the news to MMA Fighting on Monday.

Following wins in his first two fights after returning to the UFC roster, Jacoby ended up going to a split draw in his most recent clash against Ion Cutelaba in early May. Now Jacoby will look to return to the win column after he previously took out Justin Ledat and Maxim Grishin following an impressive showing on Dana White’s Contender Series to earn his UFC contract.
