UFC Fight Night New Orleans Lineup Finalized with Giagos-Wade Matchup

The lineup for the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s June 6 trip to New Orleans is complete with the addition of a lightweight clash pitting Christos Giagos against Chris Wade.

The Las Vegas-based promotion revealed the bout on Wednesday. The UFC Fight Night event takes place at the Smoothie King Center and is headlined by a middleweight bout between Dan Henderson and Tim Boetsch.

Giagos debuted in the Octagon last October, when he tapped to a Gilbert Burns armbar in the opening stanza at UFC 179.
