A flyweight fight between Jussier Formiga and Zach Makovsky has been verbally agreed to take place at UFC 176, officials announced on Tuesday evening.
The 125-pound tilt adds to the developing fight card, which takes place Aug. 2 in Los Angeles at Staples Center.
Formiga (16-3) is coming off one of the biggest wins in his career, a finish of Scott Jorgensen at a UFC Fight Night in Brazil last March. The Brazilian fighter holds a 2-2 record in the Octagon.
Makovsky (18-4) is undefeated in his two UFC bouts, picking up a recent victory over Josh Sampo at UFC 170 last February, as well as a debut win over Jorgensen.
UFC 176 is scheduled to be headlined by a featherweight title fight featuring champion Jose Aldo defending his title a second time against Chad Mendes.
