A pair of rising-star featherweights will mix it up when the UFC returns to Australia in February after having their original booking scrapped. Canada’s Jeremy Kennedy (11-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC) will put his unbeaten record on the line when he travels “Down Under” to meet Australia’s own Alex Volkanovski (16-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC) at UFC 221. The fight booking was reported by MMA-Today.com , though UFC officials have not yet made a formal announcement. Kennedy and Volkanovski originally were scheduled to meet at UFC Fight Night 121 a month ago in Australia, but Kennedy pulled out of the fight in October with a back injury. UFC 221 takes place Feb. 10 at Perth Arena in Perth, Australia
