UFC targeting Alex Caceres vs. Sodiq Yusuff

According to MMA Junkie the UFC is working on an intriguing featherweight clash for their March 12 card. That outlet reports that veteran Alex Caceres and upstart Sodiq Yusuff are close to finalizing an agreement to fight on that date.

The 33-year-old Caceres has been with the UFC since 2010 when he appeared on the 12th season of The Ultimate Fighter. On that show, which featured coaches Georges St-Pierre and Josh Koscheck, Caceres won over fans—and Dana White—with his exciting style and lively personality.

‘Bruce Leeroy’ was eliminated by Michael Johnson in the quarterfinals of that competition.
