Another TUF Brasil 3 participant has had his next UFC commitment confirmed. Marcos Foot will face Igor Pokrajac in the last event of 2014, which will be held in the city of Barueri, in São Paulo, on December 20th.
The fight will be held in the light heavyweight division, confirming the drop in weight for Pezão, who competed in TUF as a heavyweight. At the reality show, Pezão was eliminated in the semi-final, being finished by Antonio Shoe Guy, who became champion of the program.
In May, at the TUF Brasil 3 Finale, in São Paulo, Pezão made his UFC debut against the program's other semifinalist, Rick Monster. On that occasion, Pezão won by technical knockout 20 seconds into the fight, taking third place in the tournament.
A UFC veteran, Pokrajac is going through a delicate moment within the organization, having suffered three defeats and one no-contest in his last four fights. In his most recent appearance, also in Brazil, he suffered a technical knockout against Rafael Feijão in Goiânia, in November 2013.
