So much for Deiveson Figueiredo’s move up to bantamweight – at least for now.
A flyweight bout between Figueiredo, the former UFC champion, and Manel Kape is in the works for UFC 290 on July 8 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. A person with knowledge of the situation confirmed the news to MMA Junkie on Wednesday following an initial report from ESPN Deportes.
