The card for the next edition of UFC in Brazil is closed. The main MMA organization on the planet has made official the complete schedule of fights that will be part of UFC Fight Night 95, an event that will be held on September 25th, in Brasília (DF).
Among the new fights announced is a duel between heavyweight veterans. Antonio Pezão, who was born in the federal capital, will try to recover from the bad phase against Roy Nelson. Pezão has five defeats, one draw and one victory in his last seven fights; the North American is also going through a bad time, with six setbacks in eight duels.
Another standout fight features two ranked fighters from the flyweight division. Jussier formiga, third in the category, will face Dustin Ortiz, 12th. Already Gilbert Durinho and Michel Trator, from the lightweight division, are in the only Brazilian duel of the event.
The two main fights of the night had already been announced previously. Chris Cyborg returns to the Octagon against Lina Lansberg, who will make her Ultimate debut. In the co-main fight, Renan Barao tries to win his first in the featherweight category against the former TUF participant Philippe Nover.
