Chris Daukaus was expected to challenge for the CFFC heavyweight title next week. Instead, he’ll be making his UFC debut against fellow newcomer Parker Porter . MMA Junkie today confirmed with multiple people with knowledge of the booking that Daukaus (8-3 MMA, 0-0 UFC) and Porter (10-5 MMA, 0-0 UFC) have agreed to meet at next week’s UFC 252, which takes place at UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Daukaus, the older brother of UFC middleweight Kyle Daukaus, was expected to headline next week’s CFFC 82 event in Philadelphia in a rematch with current CFFC heavyweight champ Shawn Teed. Instead, he’ll make his UFC debut on a little more than one week’s notice. Daukaus comes to the UFC with a record of 6-1 in his past seven contests, with the lone loss in that stretch coming to UFC and Bellator veteran Azunna Anyanwu.
