Paddy Pimblett will fight for the first time in nine months when he faces Michael Chandler in the co-main event at UFC 314 in Miami on April 12.
'Paddy The Baddy' will be seeking to maintain his perfect 6-0 UFC record against Chandler (2-4), who lost on his comeback in November after two years out of the octagon.
The five-round lightweight fight serves as co-main event with a clash between Alexander Volkanovski and Diego Lopes fight for the undisputed featherweight title.
Pimblett is coming off what was arguably his best performance in the Octagon, a first-round submission win over King Green at UFC 304 in July last year.
Victory in what is his highest-profile test to date could set up opportunities for the hugely popular Pimblett to challenge some of the division's top names.
