UFC on Fox 17 was already a card filled with intriguing matchups and it was expected to be a solid overall event to close out the year for the Las Vegas-based Ultimate Fighting Championship. The promotion announced one more contest Wednesday that will make the marquee a little stronger.
Myles Jury will drop from lightweight to featherweight and will square off against Charles “do Bronx” Oliveira, the UFC announced during Wednesday night’s airing of “UFC Tonight” on Fox Sports 1.
Jury last fought in January at UFC 182, where he suffered the first defeat of his MMA career at the hands of Donald Cerrone.
