Gavin Tucker will get his wish with a fight against Billy Quarantillo booked for UFC 256 on Dec. 12 in Las Vegas.
Multiple sources confirmed the matchup to MMA Fighting on Wednesday following an initial report from MMA Junkie.
Tucker and Quarantillo were previously booked in April but the coronavirus pandemic prevented the fight from actually happening. Quarantillo ended up fighting and defeating Spike Carlyle but then contracted COVID-19 himself, which pushed back his return to action.
Quarantillo eventually came back in September where he knocked out Kyle Nelson in the third round to move his UFC record to 3-0 overall.
