“I think December, guys. In December we will fight again”, said 'Spider'.

The Brazilian did not fight for a year to comply with the suspension imposed by USADA (US Anti-Doping Agency), due to the use of a contaminated supplement.

In the UFC schedule, the month of December will have four events. Two of them are numbered cards: UFC 231 takes place on the 08th in Toronto, Canada and UFC 232, in Las Vegas on the 29th.

Anderson had his last fight in February 2017, when he won Derek Brunson by unanimous decision. With a fight confirmed for November last year against Kelvin Gastelum in Shanghai, the Brazilian was removed from the card due to the results of the anti-doping test and the preventive suspension.
