Jacob Kilburn vs. Austin Lingo added to UFC Fight Night on Jan. 16

A featherweight matchup is the latest addition to UFC Fight Night on Jan. 16, as Jacob Kilburn will face Austin Lingo.

Two people with knowledge of the situation informed MMA Junkie of the booking but asked to remain anonymous since the UFC has yet to make an official announcement.

Kilburn (8-3 MMA, 0-1 UFC), a Dana White’s Contender Series alum, saw his two-fight winning streak snapped at the hands of Billy Quarantillo in his promotional debut last December at UFC on ESPN 7.

Lingo (7-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) will also be in search of his first UFC win after suffering a unanimous decision loss to Youssef Zalal at UFC 247 in February, his first career loss.

With the addition, the UFC’s Jan. 16 lineup, for which a venue has not yet been named, now includes:

• Brian Kelleher vs. Ricky Simon
• Carlos Felipe vs. Justin Tafa
• Tim Elliott vs. Jordan Espinosa
• Jacob Kilburn vs. Austin Lingo
