A matchup between heavy-hitting 205-pounders will take place in February.
Multiple people with knowledge of the promotion’s plans confirmed to MMA Fighting that a bout between Dustin Jacoby and Maxim Grishin will take place at the UFC’s event on Feb. 27. The fight card is expected to take place at UFC APEX in Las Vegas.
Nearly nine years after he parted ways with the UFC following consecutive losses in his first stint with the promotion, Jacoby picked up his first octagon victory at UFC Vegas 12 in October when he finished Justin Ledet in the first round.
