A flyweight showdown between John Moraga and Justin Scoggins will kick off the main card when the UFC heads to Connecticut on Sept. 5.
In addition to Moraga-Scoggins, the UFC also recently announced that a bantamweight tilt between Dustin Kimura and Ian Entwistle has been added to the Sept. 5 card.
A former flyweight title challenger, Moraga last appeared at UFC Fight Night Albuquerque, where he lost a rematch to John Dodson via doctor stoppage after two rounds. The 30-year-old Arizona is 3-2 during his Octagon tenure, with triumphs over Ulysses Gomez, Chris Cariaso and Dustin Ortiz.
Scoggins, 22, suffered his first loss of his career on July 6, dropping a split verdict to Dustin Ortiz at “The Ultimate Fighter 19” finale. The American Top Team representative debuted in the Octagon with a first round stoppage of Richie Vaculik in December before outpointing Will Campuzano at UFC 171 in March.
