The middleweight contest between No. 12-ranked contender Nassourdine and No. 13-seeded Kelvin Gastelum will serve as the main event of the UFC Fight Night bill. When facing the UFC veteran, who will be devoted to fighting back to the top, the up-and-coming Imavov will seek to enter the divisional top 10.
The fight was initially slated to take place at UFC 273 in April last year. Imavov’s forced withdrawal owing to visa complications necessitated the fight’s postponement.
