A welterweight contest between Rory MacDonald and Tarec Saffiedine is in the works for the Fight Night card in Halifax on October 4.
Another important contest in the welterweight division will likely be slotted to take place in the fall, as Rory MacDonald and Tarec Saffiedine are expected to meet on the October 4 Fight Night card in Halifax.
UFC Tonight's Ariel Helwani reported that he two notable welterweights are currently in preliminary talks to headline the event.
Since losing a split decision to Robbie Lawler at UFC 167, Canada's Rory MacDonald has picked up two consecutive wins in 2014, first against Demian Maia, with the second being a dominant decision win over Tyron Woodley.
Former Strikeforce welterweight champion Tarec Saffiedine has been out of competition since a January win over Hyun Gyu Lim in Singapore. Twice the welterweight was slotted in match-ups against Jake Ellenberger, the most recent of which was at UFC 172. Saffiedine withdrew from that scheduled contest after suffering an undisclosed injury during training.
UFC Fight Night: Halifax is scheduled to take place October 4 at the Scotiabank Centre in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
