Vicente Luque will look to snap his two-fight losing skid when he meets former champ Rafael dos Anjos in a UFC main event this summer.
Luque (21-9-1 MMA, 14-5 UFC) and dos Anjos (33-14 MMA, 21-12 UFC) have agreed to a five-round headliner in the welterweight division at UFC Fight Night on July 15. The card does not have an announced location or venue.
MMA Junkie verified that verbal agreements are in place for the contest with multiple people close to the situation following an initial report from MMAFighting.com. The people requested anonymity because the promotion has yet to make an official announcement.
After going on a 10-1 run that included nine finishes against the likes of Michael Chiesa and former champ Tyron Woodley, the results have flipped on Luque, 31, who dropped back-to-back fights in 2022 against Belal Muhammad and Geoff Neal. He was knocked out for the first time in his career by Neal at UFC on ESPN 40 in August, and will look to right the ship following an 11-month layoff.
Dos Anjos, 38, meanwhile, will look to make it 2-0 since he returned to the 170-pound division. The former UFC lightweight titleholder submitted Bryan Barberena at UFC on ESPN 42 in December in his first appearance, and will look to keep that momentum going in what will be his 12th career octagon headliner.
The latest lineup for UFC Fight Night on July 15 now includes:
- Rafael dos Anjos vs. Vicente Luque
- Walt Harris vs. Josh Parisian
- Azat Maksum vs. Tyson Nam
- Chelsea Chandler vs. Norma Dumont
