Veteran featherweights Jeremy Stephens and Arnold Allen are expected to clash at the upcoming UFC event on Nov. 7 with the card likely taking place in Las Vegas.
Multiple sources confirmed the matchup to MMA Fighting on Tuesday following an initial report from MMA Junkie.
The fight comes at a pivotal time for Stephens after going 0-4 with one no contest in his past five appearances. After rattling off three straight wins in the division, Stephens suffered back-to-back losses to Jose Aldo and Zabit Magomedsharipov before an eye poke brought an abrupt end to his first fight against Yair Rodriguez.
