Santiago Ponzinibbio looks to get back in the win column against one of the UFC’s most exciting prospects.
Multiple people with knowledge of the promotion’s plans confirmed to MMA Fighting that a matchup between Ponzinibbio and the undefeated Miguel Baeza will take place at the UFC’s event on June 5 in a location yet to be announced. Combate was first to report the booking.
While on an impressive seven-fight winning streak, Ponzinibbio was forced out of action for over two years after suffering a bacterial infection, which led to multiple surgeries.
