Gritty grapplers Darren Elkins and Tristan Connelly will battle in April.
Elkins (26-10 MMA, 16-9 UFC) meets Connelly (14-7 MMA, 1-1 UFC) at UFC Fight Night on April 30, which takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas and streams on ESPN+.
Two people with knowledge of the booking recently confirmed the matchup to MMA Junkie but asked to remain anonymous since the promotion has yet to make an official announcement. Global News was first to report the news, and Elkins subsequently announced it on social media.
