The UFC’s return to New Jersey continues to build with the addition of a welterweight fight.
Tony Martin (12-4 MMA, 4-4 UFC) will move up to 170 pounds from lightweight to take on Keita Nakamura (33-8-2 MMA, 3-2 UFC) at UFC Fight Night 128. UFC officials announced the booking today.
UFC Fight Night 128 will take place April 21 at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, N.J. The main card will air on FS1 following prelims on FS2 and UFC Fight Pass.

Nakamura got back in the win column in September in his home country of Japan with a split-decision victory over Alex Morono. The veteran fighter has alternated wins and losses in his five-fight UFC tenure, which also includes submission wins over Li Jingliang and Kyle Noke. The Jingliang win was a bonus-winner.
