A bantamweight division attraction has been added to the March 23 UFC Fight Night card according to the Iridium Sports Agency as Davey Grant faces Cody Gibson.

Grant (15-7-0) has won two of his last five under the UFC banner, with those wins coming over Louis Smolka and Raphael Assuncao. Grant hasn’t won a bout in just about a year, with his last win coming at UFC Fight Night 221 in March of 2023. Grant has earned 15 wins as a professional MMA fighter and nine of them have come by way of submission.

Gibson (19-9-0) is winless during his second run with the UFC, dropping a fight to Brad Katona via unanimous decision at UFC 292.
