It seems Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos will once again perform on the UFC’s Fight Island. Following a July 11 outing that did not go his away against Muslim Salikhov, ‘Capoeira’ is now set to welcome M-1 Challenge veteran Shavkat Rakhmonov at UFC 254, Ag Fight reports.
In his last outing, Zaleski (22-7) dropped a narrow split decision to Muslim Salikhov, which most pundits awarded to the Brazilian. Before that, the 33-year-old scored a unanimous decision victory over Alexey Kunchenko, back in March.
Undefeated prospect Rakhmonov (12-0) arrives at the UFC with an impressive record.
