The line-up for UFC 183 has received it’s fourth fight, as the promotion has announced that Ildermar Alcantara and Richardson Moreira have verbally agreed to fight at the upcoming event. According to the announcement the fight will be contested at middleweight.

The January 31st card will take place at a venue, yet to be determined, in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Alcantara (20-7) is looking to get back on track after he was decisioned by Kenny Robertson at UC 175 this past July. Prior to that the fighter scored a split decision win over Albert Tumenov.

Moreira (7-2) is coming of an unsuccessful UFC debut, as he was KO’d by Marcos Rogerio de Lima in May.

UFC 183 will be headlined by a middleweight fight between former champ Anderson Silva and Nick Diaz.
