It loos like TUF China winner Zhang Lipeng has his next scrap, as the welterweight and Chris Wade have verbally agreed to scrap.

According to a tweet from the promotion, the two are set to battle at UFC Fight Night 59, which will be hosted by Boston’s TD Garden.

Zhang (8-7-1) scored a split decision over Wang Sai in March to win TUF China, and then in August, he decisioned Brendan O’Reilly.

Wade (8-1) is coming off a successful Octagon debut in August, as he choked out Cain Carrizosa with a first round, guillotine choke.

UFC FN 59 will be headlined by a featherweight fight between Conor McrGregor and Dennis Siver.
