UFC on FOX 15: Jim Hettes vs. Diego Brandao Rebooked

UFC featherweight Jimy Hettes

By FCF Staff

A featherweight fight between Jim Hettes and Diego Brandao has been added to UFC on FOX 15, after a scheduled encounter was cancelled last month.

Brandao and Hettes were set to fight at UFC 183, but the latter feinted shortly before the card, and the bout was called off.

Hettes (11-2) is looking to recover from a stoppage loss to Dennis Bermudez last March, after he choked out Robert Whiteford in October, 2013.

Brandao (18-10), on the other hand, is coming off consecutive, stoppage losses to Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor.

UFC on FOX 15 will be hosted by the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, on April 18th.
