UFC 303 adds another fight to Conor McGregor vs. Michael Chandler undercard
A 10th fight is official for UFC 303 – and it has action potential on paper.
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.
IL EST DE RETOUR!
