A featherweight fight looks to be added to the UFC’s stretch of events on “Fight Island.”
Multiple people with knowledge of the promotion’s plans confirmed to MMA Fighting that a bout between Jared Gordon and Chris Fishgold is in the works for July 15. The event, which will be the second of four in an eight day span, takes place on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi.
Gordon returns to 145-pounds following a five-fight stretch in the UFC’s lightweight division. “Flash” looks to get back in the win column following a first-round knockout defeat at the hands of Charles Oliveira at UFC Sao Paulo in November.
