Pedro Munhoz vs. Brett Johns added to UFC 227 in August

UFC 227 will be headlined by a bantamweight title fight, and the UFC has decided to add another good 135-pound bout to the card as well. The promotion recently announced that Brett Johns and Pedro Munhoz will face off on the August 4th card in the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

Johns (15-1, 3-1 UFC) is getting back in there quickly after suffering the first loss of his career via decision to Aljamain Sterling in April. Before that, he picked up a 2017 submission of the year candidate with a calf slicer win over Joe Soto.
