Roberto Soldic vs. Daniel Rodriguez targeted for UFC Dallas
Roberto Soldić is getting his chance to break into the welterweight top 15.
On Monday, MMA Fighting confirmed that Soldić will fight Daniel Rodriguez at UFC Dallas, the first UFC event of 2027, which takes place on Jan. 16. The matchup was first reported by The Starch.
A former two-division KSW champion, Soldić (18-2, 1 NC) joined the UFC this year, making his promotional debut last month, where he won a unanimous decision over Khaos Williams at UFC 332. The 31-year-old Croatian fighter previously held the KSW welterweight and middleweight titles, but spent the past several years in ONE Championship.
