Following UFC Manila cancellation, Horiguchi vs. Bagautinov moves to UFC Belfast

Today would've been UFC Fight Night: Lamas vs. Penn in The Philippines, but BJ Penn suffered an injury and withdrew from the card, and the event was scrapped just days later. One of the key matchups on the card was a flyweight matchup between Ali Bagautinov and Kyoji Horiguchi, and it's not taken long for it to be rescheduled for another card. SportsJoe.ie reports that Horiguchi/Bagautinov is now set for UFC Fight Night 99 on Saturday, November 19th.

Horiguchi (17-2) has won both of his fights since his April 2015 title fight loss to Demetrious Johnson.
