Lightweights Nick Hein, Damir Hadzovic Booked for UFC Fight Night Hamburg on July 22

Nick Hein will face Damir Hadzovic in a lightweight bout at UFC Fight Night 134 in Hamburg, Germany, on July 22.

The promotion confirmed the pairing on Tuesday. UFC Fight Night 134 takes place at Barclaycard Arena and is headlined by a light heavyweight tilt between Volkan Oezdemir and Mauricio Rua.

Hein returned from a nearly two-year hiatus at UFC 224, where he suffered a first-round submission loss to Davi Ramo on May 12. The Cologne, Germany native is 4-2 in the UFC and 14-3 as a professional overall.

Hadzovic, meanwhile, has lost two of his three Octagon appearances, including a decision defeat to Alan Patrick Silva Alves in his most recent outing at UFC Fight Night 125 on Feb. 3. The 31-year-old Bosnian owns an 11-4 professional mark, with nine wins coming inside the distance.
