Another UFC interim champion will be crowned next month.
Rafael dos Anjos and Colby Covington are set to square off for the UFC interim welterweight title in the UFC 224 co-main event, MMAFighting.com reported Tuesday afternoon. BJPenn.com first reported the news last month.
Dos Anjos (28-9) is 3-0 since moving up to 170 pounds. He most recently defeated former champion Robbie Lawler in the UFC on FOX 26 main event last December. Prior to that, he bested Neil Magny by submission and Tarec Saffiedine by decision.
