UFC heavyweights Chris Barnett and Martin Buday are scheduled to meet in a bout at a yet-to-be-announced UFC Fight Night event on April 16.
Eurosports' Marcel Dorff was the first to report the news of the matchup, although the promotion itself has yet to confirm anything regarding the booking. Barnett is 1-1 in his two Octagon outings and will look to build on a second-round TKO win over Gian Villante at UFC 268. Buday meanwhile will make his official UFC debut and is coming off of a first-round TKO victory over Lorenzo Hood at Dana White's Contender Series 43.
