Rising South African bantamweight Cameron Saaiman has a new UFC 290 opponent. With Christian Rodriguez out due to injury, “The Ultimate Fighter 24” cast member Terrence Mitchell (15-2 MMA, 0-0 UFC) is expected to face Saaiman (8-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC) on the prelims of the July 8 event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Two people with knowledge of the matchup recently informed MMA Junkie of it but asked to remain anonymous as the promotion has yet to make an official announcement. Verbal agreements are in place with bout contracts already issued. Mitchell, 33, enters his UFC debut on a 12-fight winning streak.
