Jose Aldo vs. Mario Bautista is now the third fight of the main card of next week’s UFC 307 after an injury forced the postponement of Aljamain Sterling vs. Movsar Evloev to UFC 310 in December.
The promotion announced the move during the UFC Paris broadcast Saturday. UFC 307 takes place at Vivint Arena in Salt Lake City on Oct. 5.
Aldo, a former UFC and WEC featherweight champion, seeks his second victory since returning from retirement earlier this year with a dominant win over Jonathan Martinez in Brazil. Bautista has won past six octagon bouts, which includes a trio of submissions.
UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira tops the card in a title defense against Khalil Rountree, while Raquel Pennington puts her bantamweight belt on the line for the first time versus ex-champion Julianna Peña. Ketlen Vieira vs. Kayla Harrison and Roman Dolidze vs. Kevin Holland complete the main card.
