As two middleweights looking to rebound from rough stretches, Edmen Shahbazyan and AJ Dobson will meet on the main card of UFC Vegas 89.
A former top 10-ranked fighter, Shahbazyan (12-4, 5-4 in UFC) last lost to Anthony Hernandez at UFC Vegas 73. Shahbazyan picked up a win over Dalcha Lungiambula before the loss that ended a three-fight losing streak. Now 1-4 in his last five fights, the once-undefeated prospect enters as a favorite for the sixth time in the UFC.
Dobson (7-2, 1-2 in UFC) has not had the pedigree of Shahbazyan but comes into the matchup off a win over Tafon Nchukwi at UFC Vegas 78.
