The UFC 303 lineup now has fight No. 10.
The promotion announced Saturday on social media the latest addition to the card headlined by Conor McGregor vs. Michael Chandler. In a featherweight prelim on the June 29 undercard at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Canada’s Charles Jourdain will battle Brazil’s Jean Silva.
Jourdain (15-7-1 MMA, 6-6-1 UFC) aims to bounce back from a split decision defeat to Sean Woodson at UFC 297 in January. The loss snapped a two-fight winning streak that included victories over Kron Gracie and Ricardo Ramos.
Silva (12-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC) was supposed to compete at UFC 301 on May 4, but opponent William Gomis was deemed medically unfit to compete after a frightening offiial weigh-in appearance. Silva is a Dana White’s Contender Series signee who won his promotional debut in January with a first-round knockout of Westin Wilson.
