Rescheduled Elliott v Micallef bout set for UFC 325

Welsh welterweight Oban Elliott will face against Australian Jonathan Micallef at UFC 325 in Sydney, Australia on Saturday, 31 January.

The pair were due to meet in Perth in September, but the bout was cancelled because Elliott was ill.

Elliott will be looking to bounce back from his first defeat in the UFC against Seok Hyeon Ko in June, which halted his eight-fight win streak.

Micallef is on a three-fight winning streak with a professional record of eight wins and one loss.

The card is headlined by Alexander Volkanovski, who will defend his featherweight title against Diego Lopes in a rematch of their contest in April, which saw Volkanovski win by unanimous decision.

Dan Hooker and Benoit Saint-Denis face off in the co-main event.
