Welterweights Sasha Palatnikov and Ramiz Brahimaj will both look to get back into the win column when they clash at the upcoming UFC event scheduled for Aug. 21.
Multiple sources confirmed the matchup to MMA Fighting on Monday. MMA Junkie initially reported the contest.
Following a TKO finish in his UFC debut, Palatnikov suffered a setback in his next appearance inside the octagon when he fell to Impa Kasanganay by second-round submission. Overall, Palatnikov has gone 2-2 in his past four fights but now he’ll look to steady the ship when he returns to action in August.
