UFC adds Ricardo Ramos vs. Lerone Murphy to second ‘Fight Island’ card in July

UFC featherweights Ricardo Ramos and Lerone Murphy will collide at Abu Dhabi’s Yas Island on July 15, sources confirmed to MMA Fighting following a report from Ag. Fight.

The Fight Night show will be headlined by a featherweight showdown between Calvin Kattar and Dan Ige, with former lightweight champion Frankie Edgar making his bantamweight debut in the co-headliner opposite Pedro Munhoz.

Ramos (14-2) will enter the octagon for the first time in 2020 after bouncing back from his first career-loss to Said Nurmagomedov with a decision against Journey Newson last June, following up with a successful return to the 145-pound weight class by submitting Eduardo Garagorri inside one round in November.
