A welterweight bout pitting Bryan Battle against Randy Brown has been added to the UFC 310 lineup.
Battle’s management, Iridium Sports Agency, announced the booking on Monday. UFC 310 takes place on Dec. 7 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and is headlined by a welterweight championship tilt between Belal Muhammad and Shavkat Rakhmonov. In the co-main event, Alexandre Pantoja will defend his flyweight belt against Kai Asakura.
Battle, who won “The Ultimate Fighter 29,” has lost just once in eight Octagon appearances. Most recently, “The Butcher” defeated Kevin Jousset via second-round technical knockout at UFC Paris on Sept. 28. Battle has finished all but one of his six victories in UFC competition.
An 18-time UFC veteran, Brown has been victorious in seven of his last eight outings within the Las Vegas-based promotion — with his only loss during that period coming at the hands of Jack Della Maddalena. “Rude Boy” is coming off a three-round verdict over Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos at UFC 302 on June 1.
