Jesse Butler and Jeka Asparido Saragih are slated to clash at UFC Fight Night 232 on Nov. 18.
The matchup was first announced on Tuesday by Butler’s management, Iridium Sports Agency. UFC Fight Night 232 takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas and is headlined by a middleweight showdown between Brendan Allen and Paul Craig.
Butler suffered a 23-second knockout loss against Jim Miller in his UFC debut back in June. The 31-year-old was then booked to make a quick turnaround and take on Sean Woodson at UFC Nashville in August. However, Butler pulled out of the matchup, citing Las Vegas commission “protocol.”
Meanwhile, Saragih was a finalist in last year’s Road to UFC, the promotion’s venture for scouting Asian talent. The Indonesian seemingly has another shot at a UFC career after coming up short against India’s Anshul Jubli in the season finale in February. Saragih was on a five-fight winning streak that included four finishes prior to his loss to Jubli.
