Jack Hermansson vs. Sean Strickland Targeted For February

UFC middleweight contenders Jack Hermansson and Sean Strickland are scheduled to fight at a yet-to-be-announced UFC Fight Night event on February 5.

ESPN's Brett Okamoto was the first to report the news of the 185-pound headliner, although contracts are not officially yet signed for the bout. Hermansson is 2-2 in his last four fights and is coming off of a unanimous decision win over Edmen Shahbazyan at UFC Vegas 27. Strickland on the other hand is on a five-fight winning streak currently, defeating Uriah Hall via a unanimous decision at UFC Vegas 33 in his latest Octagon appearance.
