Fresh off a devastating finish in his UFC debut, Paulo Borrachinha is set to return to the Octagon in June.
The undefeated middleweight is set to meet Oluwale Bamgbose at UFC 212, pay-per-view event scheduled for June 3 at Rio de Janeiro’s HSBC Arena, sources told MMA Fighting following a report by Combate.
Borrachinha (9-0) only got a chance in the Octagon three years after going 1-1 on TUF Brazil 3, and needed 77 seconds to stop Garreth McLellan, earning the 'Performance of the Night’ bonus for his knockout at UFC Fight Night 106 in March.
