With Ignacio Bahamondes out of UFC 277, Ludovit Klein now faces Mason Jones at UFC London

UFC Fight Night 208 has received a late addition to the card.

With Iganacio Bahamondes out of his UFC 277 bout against Ludovit Klein on July 30, Klein will now compete a week earlier in London when he faces Mason Jones at O2 Arena on July 23.

A person with knowledge of the matchup confirmed the booking to MMA Junkie but asked to remain anonymous because the promotion has yet to make an official announcement. ESPN Deportes was first to report the news of Bahamondes’ withdrawal and Eurosport NL was first to report the news of the matchup.

Klein (18-4 MMA, 2-2 UFC), 27, has split his first four octagon appearances. In his past outing at UFC 272 in March, the Slovakian fighter snapped a two-fight losing skid by edging out Devonte Smith in his return to 155 pounds.

Jones (11-1-1, 1-1-1 UFC), a former two-division Cage Warriors champion, picked up his first octagon win last October when he defeated David Onama at UFC Fight Night 196.
