A heavyweight matchup is the latest addition to the UFC’s Jan. 16 event. Carlos Felipe (9-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) will face Justin Tafa (4-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC). No location or name designation has been announced for the event. MMA Junkie confirmed the booking with a person close to the situation following an initial report from Combate . The person requested anonymity because the UFC has yet to make an official announcement. After suffering his first pro loss to Serghei Spivac in his promotional debut in July, Brazil’s Felipe rebounded with a unanimous decision over Yorgan De Castro two weeks ago at UFC on ESPN 16.
