Thatch vs Bahadurzada announced for Pittsburgh UFC event

Earlier on Tuesday, the UFC announced more fights for their upcoming event on February 21st, including a bout between fan favorite Brandon Thatch and the returning Siyar Bahadurzada, which will be sure to please the noble yinzers.

Brandon "Rukus" Thatch made his UFC debut in August of 2013 with a TKO win over Justin Edwards followed by a body shot KO (knee) versus Paulo Thiago. Thatch is coming off of back-to-back submission losses at the hands of Ben Henderson and Gunnar Nelson.

Siyar "The Great" Bahadurzada made his UFC debut in April of 2012 by also defeating Thiago with a highlight-reel knockout (it's been rough for him).
