Promotion officials announced the pairing on Friday. UFC 220 takes place at TD Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Jan. 20 and is headlined by a heavyweight title clash between Stipe Miocic and Francis Ngannou. In the co-main event, Daniel Cormier will defend the light heavyweight crown against Volkan Oezdemir.

The winner of Season 2 of “The Ultimate Fighter: Latin America,” Barzola has won three of his four Octagon appearances. The 28-year-old Lima, Peru, native last appeared at UFC 211, where he took a unanimous decision over Gabriel Benitez.

A veteran of Bellator and CES MMA, Bessette entered Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series 1 on a seven-fight winning streak. While he would fall to Kurt Holobaugh via first-round TKO, that bout was later overturned to a no contest after it was discovered that Holobaugh failed to disclose his pre-fight use of an IV.
