Veteran Tom Breese will try to keep Roman Kopylov winless inside the octagon.
Officials announced Friday that Breese (11-2) is set to face Kopylov (8-1) in a middleweight bout at a UFC Fight Night on Oct. 3 at a location still to be determined.
This will be Breese’s second appearance of 2020, the first time he’s logged two in-cage appearances since 2016. Injuries and health concerns related to anxiety have kept the 28-year-old Englishman out of action. He is just 1-2 in his last three fights, most recently losing by first-round TKO to Brendan Allen in February.
