UFC books Sergey Morozov vs. Journey Newson for December
Sergey Morozov and Journey Newson are set to square off.
At a UFC Fight Night event on Dec. 17 at a location and venue to be announced, the two bantamweight fighters will each attempt to extend a solo victory into a winning streak.
Two people with knowledge of the matchup Wednesday informed MMA Junkie of the booking but asked to remain anonymous as the promotion has yet to make an official announcement.
In June, Morozov (18-5 MMA, 2-2 UFC) rebounded from a barnburner loss to Douglas Silva de Andrade when he defeated Raulian Paiva via unanimous decision. The win brought him to 2-1 in his most recent three.
Newson (10-3 MMA, 1-2 UFC) snapped a three-fight winless stretch in May when he defeated Fernie Garcia by unanimous decision. The performance marked Newson’s first UFC victory. Newson knocked out Domingo Pilarte in 2020 under the UFC banner, but the win was overturned to a no contest when he tested positive for marijuana.
With the addition, the UFC Fight Night lineup for Dec. 17 includes:
- Julian Marquez vs. Deron Winn
- Tafon Nchukwi vs. Jamal Pogues
- Sergey Morozov vs. Journey Newson
