According to a report from Brazilian news outlet Combate, a handful of bouts have been tacked onto the UFC Fight Night 95 card. The event is slated for Sep. 24 at Nilson Nelson Gymnasium in Brasilia, the country’s capital.

To coincide with the previously-reported lightweight clash between Paul Felder and Francisco Trinaldo, welterweights Erick Silva and Brandon Thatch will square off. Combate also reported that Michinori Tanaka will take on Rani Yahya in a bantamweight encounter while Renato Moicano will oppose Mike de la Torre at 145 pounds.

A welterweight skirmish featuring Alan Patrick Silva Alves and Steven Ray is also scheduled for the event, which will be streamed live on UFC Fight Pass, followed by a live telecast on Fox Sports 1.

Ultimate Fighting Championship officials have yet to confirm these bouts.
