Team Alpha Male’s September trip to Brazil has increased by one for a key matchup at bantamweight. T.J. Dillashaw (8-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC) has been booked for a bout against Raphael Assuncao (20-4 MMA, 4-1 UFC) when the UFC returns to Belo Horizonte for UFC on FOX Sports 1 3. Globo first reported the news, though UFC officials have yet to make a formal announcement. UFC on FOX Sports 1 3 takes place Sept. 4 at Estadio Jornalista Felipe Drumond in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. It will be the UFC’s second visit to the city after first visiting for UFC 147 in 2012. Dillashaw joins teammate Joseph Benavidez , who fights Jussier Formiga at flyweight, as Team Alpha Male fighters on the card in Brazil.
