Middleweight contenders Jack Hermansson and Edmen Shahbazyan will go to battle at the upcoming UFC 262 card on May 15 in Houston.
Multiple sources confirmed the matchup to MMA Fighting following an initial report from LA Times reporter Manouk Akopyan.
The bout will serve as a chance at redemption for both fighters coming off recent losses.
Following a stunning first-round submission over Kelvin Gastelum this past July, Hermansson fell to Marvin Vettori in a main event clash in his most recent outing. Overall, Hermansson has gone 5-2 in his past six fights with his only losses coming to Vettori and top five ranked middleweight Jared Cannonier.
