Several new fights have been announced for the upcoming UFC Fight Night card in Vancouver on Sept. 14 including a light heavyweight showdown between former title contender Glover Teixeira and Nikita Krylov.
Teixeira is fresh off back-to-back submission wins over Karl Roberson and Ion Cutelaba as the 39-year old veteran remains a mainstay in the light heavyweight rankings. He’s gone 3-1 overall in his past four fights with his only loss coming in a decision to Corey Anderson last July.
As for Krylov, the always exciting Russian returned to the UFC last year after nearly two years away from the promotion.
