A pair of Korean fighters return to the cage after lengthy layoffs on July 31 in two newly announced matchups.
UFC officials today announced a bantamweight contest between Kung Ho Kang and Rani Yahya, as well as a featherweight matchup of Dooho Choi vs. Danny Chavez – both of which take place at a UFC Fight Night event on July 31, which does not currently have a publicly announced location or venue.
Kang (17-8 MMA, 6-2 UFC) returns to action for the first time since a December 2019 split-decision win over Liu Pingyuan. “Mr. Perfect” is currently riding a three-fight winning streak and is 6-1 in his last seven overall contests.

He now faces Chavez (11-4 MMA, 1-1 UFC), who last saw action in February, suffering a decision loss that snapped a four-fight winning streak.
With the additions to the card, the July 31 lineup includes:
