A light heavyweight matchup has been added to an Ultimate Fighting Championship card scheduled for May 17.
Veteran Paul Craig (17-9) will face Rodolfo Bellato (12-2) at UFC Vegas 106 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Bellato confirmed the pairing after an initial report from MagicM_MMABets on social media.
While Craig’s UFC career has seen its share of highs and lows, the Scot has been on a steady downward slope in recent times. Craig moved down to middleweight in 2023 after back-to-back losses at 205 pounds. However, that stint didn’t work out well, as “Bearjew” dropped three in a row against top-tier competition after a win against Andre Muniz in his middleweight debut.
