Against Romanov, the Rio native will try to score his second victory since signing his contract with the UFC. In his last fight, 'Bebezão' defeated Jeff Hughes in the unanimous decision of the judges in one of the fights of UFC Singapore, in October.
Raphael arrived at Ultimate with an undefeated career, but suffered his first setback precisely on his debut for the company, in August last year, when he was submitted by Cyryl Gane.
Against Alexander, the Brazilian will have the obligation to take away his rival's unbeaten record. Romanov, today, has 11 fights on his record and has never been beaten in an official fight. Known for his strength in ground fighting, the fighter will make his Ultimate debut at UFC Lincoln.
In addition to the 'Bebezão' fight, Ultimate also confirmed the confrontation between Alan Nuguette e Christos Giagos. The fight had already been announced by the Brazilian on his social networks.
