A flyweight bout between Jeff Molina and promotional newcomer Daniel Lacerda is set for the UFC Fight Night show on Oct. 23, multiple people with knowledge of the booking told MMA Fighting following a report from Combate.
The UFC has yet to officially announce the card and its headlining attraction, but it’s expected to take place at Las Vegas’ UFC APEX.
Molina (9-2) is on an eight-fight winning streak with six finishes over the past four years, capped off by victories over Jacob Silva and Qileng Aori at Dana White’s Contender Series and UFC 261, respectively.
