Undefeated UFC featherweight contenders, Movsar Evloev and Ilia Topuria are set to collide at UFC 270 on January 22 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California.
Red Fury MMA was the first to report the news of the matchup via an Instagram posting, although the promotion is yet to confirm or announce the bout. Evloev is 5-0 in the UFC currently and is coming off of a unanimous decision victory over Hakeem Dawodu at UFC 263. Topuria meanwhile is 3-0 in his three Octagon appearances and will try to build on a first-round knockout win over Ryan Hall at UFC 264.
