Alexander Volkov (26-6 MMA, 0-0 UFC) has signed with the UFC, a promotion official today confirmed to MMAjunkie, and will meet Timothy Johnson (10-2 MMA, 2-1 UFC) at UFC Fight Night 99 in November in Northern Ireland. UFC Fight Night 99 takes place Nov. 19 at SSE Arena in Belfast, and the entire card streams on UFC Fight Pass, though the bout order hasn’t been finalized. It’s the first of two cards on Nov.
