A welterweight bout between Lyman Good (19-3 MMA, 1-0 UFC) and Belal Muhammad (10-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) is the latest addition to UFC 205.
UFC officials today announced the bout via newsday.com.
UFC 205 takes place Nov. 12 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass, though the bout order hasn’t been finalized.
Good, a 31-year-old New Yorker, was an early Bellator champion who made his UFC debut in 2015. Fresh off a CFFC title victory, he met Andrew Craig in his promotional debut and scored a second-round knockout victory. He’s now on a five-fight winning streak and is 8-1 (with one no-contest) in his past 10 fights.
He now returns from an injury layoff and meets Muhammad, a former Titan FC and Bellator fighter who made his UFC debut in 2015 and suffered a decision loss to Alan Jouban. However, the 28-year-old rebounded at the recent UFC Fight Night 94 event in Texas and earned a TKO win over Augusto Montano.
