UFC Fight Night 187 takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas and is headlined by a welterweight showdown between Leon Edwards and Belal Muhammad. The event is expected to stream in its entirety on ESPN+.
Tucker enters the matchup on a three-bout winning streak within the Las Vegas-based promotion. The 34-year-old Titans MMA product last appeared at UFC 256, where he outpointed Billy Quarantillo on Dec. 12. Tucker is 13-1 as a professional, with 10 of those triumphs coming inside the distance.
Ige had a six-bout promotional winning streak snapped in his last outing, when he dropped a five-round verdict to Calvin Kattar at UFC on ESPN 13 this past July. The 29-year-old Xtreme Couture product owns notable wins over Edson Barboza and Mirsad Bektic in the Octagon.
