The Ultimate Fighting Championship continues to build the line-up for its December 30th event, as it’s booked Matt Brown vs. Tarec Saffiedine and Johny Hendricks vs. Neil Magny for the card.

The welterweight fights will be part of UFC 207, which will be hosted by the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Brown (20-15) is looking to get back on track after he was stopped by Jake Ellenberger in July. The longtime contender has gone 1-4 in his last 4 bouts.

Saffiedine (16-5) lost via decision to Rick Story in his last bout, and has gone 2-2 in the UFC to date.

Magny (18-5) was put away by Lorenz Larkin in his last outing, which snapped the rugged fighter’s three fight winning streak.

Hendricks (17-5) is also in search of a win, as the former champ has been defeated by Stephen Thompson and Kelvin Gastelum in back-to-back bouts.

UFC 207 will feature bantamweight champ Amanda Nunes taking on Ronda Rousey in the headliner.
