A middleweight fight has been added to the UFC’s anticipated return to the “Mile High City.”
Two people with knowledge of the situation told MMA Junkie on Saturday that Josh Fremd vs. André Petroski has been scheduled for a UFC Fight Night event on July 13, which will take place in Denver. The two people requested anonymity, as the promotion has not yet been announced.
Both Fremd (11-5 MMA, 2-3 UFC) and Petroski (10-3 MMA, 5-2 UFC) have been struggling lately.
Fremd has had mixed results since joining the UFC in April 2022, losing his first two promotional fights and then rebounding with back-to-back wins. However, he recently lost to Roman Kopylov via second-round knockout last September.
Petroski is bouncing back from back-to-back losses to Michel Pereira and, most recently, Jacob Malkoun in March.
Below is the updated lineup for the UFC Fight Night card on July 13:
-
Rose Namajunas x Maycee Barber
-
Mike Malott x Gilbert Urbina
-
Viviane Araujo x Jasmine Jasudavicius
-
Gabriel Bonfim x Ange Loosa
-
Abdul Razak Alhassan x Cody Brundage
-
Julian Erosa x Christian Rodriguez
-
Mariya Agapova x Luana Santos
-
Santiago Ponzinibbio x Muslim
