Fresh off a TKO win over Ben Saunders at UFC 245, Brown returns to action at UFC on ESPN 8 from Columbus, Ohio, when he faces former Contender Series veteran Miguel Baeza on March 28.
Multiple sources confirmed the fight to MMA Fighting with verbal agreements in place for the contest.
Following his win this past December, Brown was quick to call for a fight in his native Ohio, where he also owns his own gym called Immortal Martial Arts.
The 39-year-old welterweight has now posted back-to-back wins after knocking out Saunders and Diego Sanchez in consecutive fights.
