The latest fight booking to the UFC Fight Night 46 card on July 19th in Ireland is a flyweight bout as Paddy Holohan will make his UFC debut against Josh Sampo.
The fight booking was announced by UFC officials on Friday.
UFC Fight Night Dublin will come from the O2 Arena on July 19th and will be headlined by Conor McGregor facing Diego Brandao in a featherweight bout.
Holohan (9-0-1) appeared on The Ultimate Fighter 18 and was eliminated in the preliminary round against Josh Hill. Since turning professional in 2007, seven of his wins have come by submission and his last official fight came in 2012 as he defeated Artemij Sitenkov by triangle choke submission.
Sampo (11-3) won his UFC debut last year as he submitted Ryan Benoit at The Ultimate Fighter 18 Finale in the second round. He would quickly return three month later and had his five fight winning streak come to an end as he lost a decision to Zack Makovsky.
