Update on this:
Sources tell me Jimi Manuwa has signed his bout agreement to fight Thiago Santos. https://t.co/UmEg974paS — Chamatkar Sandhu (@SandhuMMA) August 17, 2018
Jimi Manuwa has been looking to fight Glover Teixeira ever since the two light heavyweights signed to the Ultimate Fighting Championship back in 2012.
However a recent scheduling of the two for UFC Fight Night 137 next month was not meant to be, as Teixeira was forced out of the bout with an injury.
Instead, Manuwa will take on middleweight contender Thiago Santos in a 205-pound tilt on Sept.
