Kattar vs. Ige

The featherweight contenders are going to battle in the main event of the UFC’s July 15th card.

Kattar (21-4) is coming off a KO win over Jeremy Stephens in May, which returned him to the win column, after he dropped a decision to Zabit Magomedsharipov in November.

Ige (14-2), meanwhile, has won six in a row, and he’s coming off a tightly contested, split decision win over Edson Barboza in May.

As you can see below, co-headliners, Pedro Munhoz and Frankie Edgar are also featured on the poster. The former lighweight champ Edgar will be making his bantamweight debut.
