John Allan returns from suspension to face Roman Dolidze at UFC 255

A light heavyweight showdown between John Allan and Roman Dolidze has been added to UFC 255 on Nov. 21, both fighters confirmed on social media following a report from Combate.

Allan (13-5, 1 NC) will compete for the first since serving a one-year doping suspension following his UFC debut. He tested positive for tamoxifen after a decision victory over Mike Rodriguez in July 2019. The victory was later overturned to a no contest by the California State Athletic Commission.

Dolidze (7-0) made his UFC debut on the third Fight Island show in July, knocking out Khadis Ibragimov in the opening round in Abu Dhabi.
