At long last, Dan Ige finally gets to step into the cage with Bryce Mitchell next week. The two have been talking up a potential fight for years, and it finally is set for UFC Fight Night 227’s co-main event in Las Vegas. Mitchell (15-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) is just the latest in a string of featherweight standouts to get in the cage with Ige (17-6 MMA, 9-5 UFC), who hasn’t gotten any favors from the UFC’s matchmakers. Consecutively, he’s fought Kevin Aguilar, Mirsad Bektic, Edson Barboza, Calvin Kattar, Gavin Tucker, Chan Sung Jung, Josh Emmett, Movsar Evloev, Damon Jackson and Nate Landwehr
