Both Jimmy Wallhead and Warlley Alves will attempt to turn around two-fight losing streaks when the welterweights collide at UFC Gdansk on Oct. 21 at the Ergo Arena.
UFC’s European office announced the fight on Thursday morning through its social media networks.
As a veteran of the European scene, Wallhead’s signing to the UFC was celebrated in the UK having collected wins under the Bellator, Cage Warriors, BAMMA and KSW banners.
Yet, in his two outings for the promotion thus far, the 33-year-old is still in search of his first win in the Octagon.
