UFC Adds Exciting Lightweight Fight To March 1 Card
The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) has added an exciting lightweight bout to its upcoming event on March 1, which will be held at the Apex in Las Vegas. The newly announced fight pits Esteban Ribovics against Nasrat Haqparast in a highly anticipated matchup.
Ribovics, 28, is currently riding a three-fight win streak, including an impressive head-kick KO of Terrance McKinney in May. His most recent bout was a battle for the ages against Daniel Zellhuber, which he emerged victorious from. The winner will likely draw a ranked opponent next.
Haqparast has also been on a tear, having won four fights in a row. He is set to face Ribovics in what promises to be an electrifying fight at UFC Vegas 103.
The event will feature several other high-stakes matchups, including Brandon Royval vs. Manel Kape in the main event for the flyweight title.
