The upcoming, September 4th UFC on FOX Sports 1 card is nearing completion, as two more bouts have reportedly beed added to the event, which will take place in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. At welterweight, Kenny Robertson will take on Joao Zeferino, and at lightweight Piotr Hallmann will battle Francisco Trinaldo.

The UFC Brazil Twitter feed has confirmed the Robertson-Zeferino match-up, while Hallman has also confirmed via Twitter that his bout with Trinaldo is a go.

Hallmann (13-1) will be making his UFC debut having won nine straight bouts, and Trinaldo (13-2) meanwhile, has scored wins over C.J. Keith and most recently Mike Rio in his last two UFC outings.

UFC Fight Night 28 (formerly known as UFC on FS1 3) will feature a bout between light-heavyweight contenders Glover Teixeira and Ryan Bader in the main event.
