Thomas Almeida takes on Anthony Birchak at UFC Sao Paulo

Undefeated Thomas Almeida will fight in his hometown of Sao Paulo against Anthony Birchak on a card headlined by Vitor Belfort and Dan Henderson.

It won't be against Bryan Caraway or Takeya Mizugaki, but Thomas Almeida got his wish to fight in the Sao Paulo card. The Brazilian bantamweight prospect will step up against Anthony Birchak on November 7, as it was reported by Combate.

On the heels of an impressive come-from-behind flying knee KO over veteran Brad Pickett, the 24-year old Almeida has put together 20 wins and has yet to face defeat.
