On Saturday at UFC 218, undefeated Klose (8-0-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) meets fellow lightweight David Teymur (6-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC). The preliminary-card fight, which takes place at Little Caesars Arena in downtown Detroit, airs on FS1 before the pay-per-view main card. Klose, who’s picked up decision wins over Devin Powell and Marc Diakiese since moving from Tachi Palace Fights and RFA to the sport’s biggest promotion, plans to fight his fight on Saturday – and then sit back and watch the rest of the night’s featured attractions.
