AgFight was first to report the matchup, which was subsequently confirmed by Nascimento on social media. The UFC Fight Night card is expected to take place in China and also includes a light heavyweight clash between newcomers Zhang Mingyang and Brendson Ribeiro.
Nicknamed “The Tibetan Eagle”, Mudaerji will be in front of his home fans as the UFC makes its return to China after four years. The 27-year-old Chinese prospect is coming off a submission loss against Matt Schnell that also snapped a three-fight win streak.
Meanwhile, Nascimento came up on the short side of a split decision against Raulian Paiva at the Contender Series in 2018. “Puro Osso” would finally get his UFC call in 2021, when he ended up dropping another spilt decision against Tagir Ulanbekov. A longtime training partner of former UFC lightweight champ Charles Oliveira, Nascimento has since bounced back with back-to-back victories, including a spectacular first-round submission win over Carlos Hernandez earlier this year.
