UFC officials announced the fight booking over the weekend and it’s not known where the fight will be place on the card.

Watson (15-5) was signed by the UFC earlier this year and made his debut at UFC on FUEL TV 5 against Brad Tavares. He lost the fight by split decision and it snapped a three fight winning streak.

Nedkov (12-0, 1NC) is technically undefeated, since his last fight was declared a no contest when Thiago Silva tested positive for a banned substance at their fight at UFC on FUEL TV 6 in China. This will be his third fight in the UFC, with the two previous bouts coming as a light heavyweight.

UFC on FUEL TV 7 will take place on February 16th at Wembley Arena in London and will be headlined by Renan Barao defending the interim UFC bantamweight title against Michael McDonald.
