Randy Brown vs. Khaos Williams added to UFC 274 on May 7

Surging welterweight contenders will square off in May.

Randy Brown (14-4 MMA, 8-4 UFC) meets Khaos Williams (13-2 MMA, 4-1 UFC) at UFC 274, which takes place at Footprint Center in Phoenix on May 7, promotion officials announced during the UFC 272 broadcast this past Saturday.

Winner of four of his past five, Brown is coming off a first-round submission of Alex Oliveira at UFC 261 and, most recently, a unanimous decision over Jared Gooden at UFC Fight Night 194 this past October.

Williams has been on a roll since joining the UFC roster in February 2020. The 27-year-old Michigan native kicked off his octagon tenure with two straight Performance of the Night knockouts over Alex Morono and Abdul Razak Alhassan. A setback to Michel Pereira in December 2020 snapped his eight-fight winning streak, but Williams was able to rebound with wins over Matthew Semelsberger and another bonus-winning knockout of Miguel Baeza at UFC Fight Night 197.

With the addition, the UFC 274 lineup includes:

  • Charles Oliveira vs. Justin Gaethje – for lightweight title
  • Mauricio Rua vs. Ovince Saint Preux
  • Macy Chiasson vs. Norma Dumont
  • Donald Cerrone vs. Joe Lauzon
  • Ariane Carnelossi vs. Loopy Godinez
  • Blagoy Ivanov vs. Marcos Rogerio de Lima
  • Kleydson Rodrigues vs. CJ Vergara
  • Danny Roberts vs. Francisco Trinaldo
  • Brandon Royval vs. Matt Schnell
  • Michael Johnson vs. Alan Patrick
  • Fernie Garcia vs. Journey Newson
  • Randy Brown vs. Khaos Williams
