It’s being reported that Matt Wiman will return to the Octagon this summer, for the first time since 2014.

The 35-year-old veteran fighter is reportedly going to fight Luis Pena at UFC Greenville, June 22nd. The lightweight bout was initially reported by Greenville Online.

Wiman (16-7) last competed at UFC FN 57, in November, 2014, when he earned a decision win over Isaac Vallie-Flagg. Wiman is 3-2 in his last 5 contests.

Pena (6-1), meanwhile, is coming off a decision win over Steven Peterson in March.

UFC Greenville will be headlined by a featherweight bout between contenders Renato “Moicano” and Chan Sung Jung.
