DWCS winner Julian Marquez to make debut vs. Vitor Miranda at UFC on FOX 26
Julian Marquez’s first opportunity to make a name for himself in the UFC will come in December.
Marquez, who earned a UFC contract earlier this month thanks to Dana White’s Contender Series, will meet veteran Vitor Miranda at UFC on FOX 26 in a middleweight bout. The event, which takes place Dec. 16 at MTS Centre in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, will air on FOX with prelims on the same channel and UFC Fight Pass.
Marquez’s victory on Episode 4 of DWCS will likely go down as the most impressive of the series’ first season because of how it ended and who it came against. Marquez dominated Jon Jones training partner Phil Hawes before knocking him out with a thunderous head kick to earn his contract.
Marquez will enter his fight against Miranda on a four-fight winning streak, which has occurred in a span of 15 months.
Miranda will come in on the heels of back-to-back losses, the most recent via unanimous decision in June against Martin Vettori at UFC Fight Night 112.
