The UFC’s return to Des Moines, Iowa, has another fight. At UFC on ESPN 67 on May 3, Peru’s Gaston Bolanos will battle Vietnam’s Qaung Le in a three-round bantamweight bout at Wells Fargo Arena. Two people with knowledge of the matchup recently informed MMA Junkie of the matchup but asked to remain anonymous as the promotion has yet to make an official announcement. Bolanos (8-4 MMA, 2-1 UFC) competed nine times under the Bellator banner before he jumped to the UFC. After a debut win over Aaron Phillips, Bolanos lost to Marcus McGhee.
