SBG Ireland's Gunnar Nelson will make his long-awaited octagon return on March 19 at UFC London.
Irish Mirror have confirmed with the UFC that he has signed to fight Brazilian Claudio Silva at the O2 Arena in his first bout since September of 2019.
The Icelandic fighter, whose connection to John Kavanagh's gym has made him something of an adopted Irishman, has been dealing with injuries over the past three years that have kept him out of the cage.
