Zubaira Tukhugov meets undefeated Renato Carneiro at UFC 198

Zubaira Tukhugov and Renato Carneiro will put their undefeated UFC record on the line on May 14, as they collide in a featherweight bout at UFC 198 in Curitiba, Brazil.

Tukhugov (18-3) returns to Brazil, where he made his promotional debut, looking to go 4-0 under the UFC banner. The 25-year-old Russian featherweight has won nine in a row, defeating Douglas Andrade, Ernest Chavez and Phillipe Nover inside the Octagon.

Carneiro (9-0-1) finally returns to action almost two years after choking out Tom Niinimaki in his promotional debut on short notice.
