Evan Dunham vs. Francisco Trinaldo verbally agreed for UFC Sao Paulo

A lightweight tilt between Evan Dunham and Francisco Trinaldo is targeted for UFC’s upcoming event in Sao Paulo, Brazil, on Sept. 22, multiple sources told MMA Fighting on Monday.

UFC Sao Paulo will take place at the Ibirapuera gymnasium in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The promotion has yet to announce the main event for the Fight Night show.

Both Dunham (18-7-1) and Trinaldo (22-6) are looking to bounce back to the winning track after suffering defeats earlier this year. Dunham lost in 53 seconds to Olivier Aubin-Mercier at UFC 223, while “Massaranduba” lost a decision to James Vick at UFC Austin.
