Kajan Johnson vs. Rustam Khabilov added to UFC Fight Night 127 in London

A lightweight bout between Kajan Johnson and Rustam Khabilov is the latest addition to March’s UFC Fight Night 127 lineup.

Johnson (22-11-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC) confirmed the matchup with Khabilov (22-3 MMA, 8-2 UFC) on social media following an initial report from MMA journalist Farah Hannoun (via Twitter):

UFC Fight Night 127 takes place March 17 at The O2 in London. The entire card streams on UFC Fight Pass, though the full fight card and bout order haven’t been finalized.

After falling short in his UFC debut, Johnson only has seen octagon success since. The 33-year-old Canadian is riding a three-fight winning streak, with the most recent, a third-round knockout of Adriano Martins at UFC 215 in September, being the biggest victory of his career.

Khabilov is also on a strong run of late. His winning streak currently stands at five consecutive fights, including notable wins over Desmond Green, Leandro Silva, Chris Wade and Norman Parke.

The latest UFC Fight Night 127 card includes:

  • Jan Blachowicz vs. Jimi Manuwa
  • Leon Edwards vs. Peter Sobotta
  • Magomed Ankalaev vs. Paul Craig
  • Mark Godbeer vs. Dmitry Poberezhets
  • Nasrat Haqparast vs. Alex Reyes
  • Kajan Johnson vs. Rustam Khabilov
