One of the few fighters to have stood across from both Alex Pereira and Israel Adesanya will get one more crack at making it to the UFC. Yousri Belgaroui , a former kickboxer who twice lost to UFC light heavyweight and former middleweight champ Pereira and twice lost to former 185-pound champ Adesanya in GLORY kickboxing matches, will get another shot at Dana White’s Contender Series later this year. Belgaroui (7-3) will take on Anvarbek Daniyalbekov (8-0) in a middleweight bout at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas on Sept. 10. MMA Junkie confirmed the booking with people with knowledge of the matchup
