Beneil Dariush was left without an opponent for UFC Fight Island 4 after the withdrawal of Charles Oliveira, but Diego Ferreira wants that slot.
The fighter revealed his intentions with an Instagram post:
There is no word yet if the UFC will book the short notice Ferreira against Dariush, as the UFC Fight Island 4 card is just under a month away.
UFC Fight Island 4 is set for Saturday, October 3 from Fight Island in Yas Island, Abu Dhabi with Holly Holm and Irene Aldana headlining. Fightful is providing live coverage of the event, while broadcast plans have yet to be revealed.
