The Ultimate Fighting Championship is stacking their debut event held on ESPN+, the new ESPN streaming service, by adding two big light heavyweight bouts to the card.
According to Mark La Monica of Newsday, Glover Teixeira (27-7) will be facing Ion Cutelaba (14-3, 1 NC) at UFC on ESPN+ 1 in Brooklyn, New York, on Jan. 19.
Coming off a decision loss to Corey Anderson at UFC Fight Night 134 in July, Teixeira has alternated wins and losses in all six of his last bouts. A former title challenger, Teixeira famously had his 20-fight win streak snapped when he unsuccessfully took on Jon Jones for the light heavyweight belt in 2014.
