Lightweights Marc Diakiese and Lando Vannata meet at UFC Copenhagen in September

A lightweight fight has been added to UFC Copenhagen on September 28th, as Marc Diakiese will meet Lando Vannata on the card.

MMA Newsome was first to report the matchup, though the UFC is yet to make an official announcement. The card is beginning to shape up as UFC on ESPN+ 18 marks the promotion’s first visit to Denmark.

Diakiese (13-3) enters the fight with Vannata off a unanimous decision win over Joseph Duffy at UFC London. Before that, the “Bonecrusher” lost three straight fights, including decisions against Nasrat Haqparast and Drakkar Klose, and also a submission loss to Dan Hooker.
