The November 15th, UFC 180 card has received it’s seventh fight, as American welterweight Chris Heatherly will take on Mexico’s Augusto Montana.

The upcoming event will mark the UFC’s debut in Mexico, and will feature heavyweight champ Cain Velasquez taking on Fabricio Werdum in the headliner.

Heatherly (8-2) will be looking to rebound from a submission loss he suffered versus Ben Saunders in August, in what was his first UFC bout.

Montana (13-1), meanwhile, is a Jackson’s MMA fighter who will be making his promotional debut. Most recently, at a Jackson’s MMA Series card in August, Montana tapped out Jason Clayton with strikes.

Some of the other bouts that are set for UFC 180 include Jake Ellenberger vs. Kelvin Gastelum, Diego Sanchez vs. Joe Lauzon and Ricardo Lamas vs. Dennis Bermudez.
