A lightweight showdown pitting Renato Carneiro against Rafael Fiziev is on tap for the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s Nov. 28 card.

Combate was first to report the booking. The event is headlined by a heavyweight bout between Curtis Blaydes and Derrick Lewis. A location for the card has not been announced.

After a successful stint at featherweight, “Moicano” made his 155-pound debut at UFC Fight Night 170, where he submitted Damir Hadzovic in just 44 seconds on March 14. He was scheduled to face Magomed Mustafaev on Oct. 17 but withdrew from that contest.

After dropping his Octagon debut, Fiziev has scored back-to-back decision triumphs against Alex White at UFC Fight Night 162 and against Marc Diakiese at UFC Fight Night 172. The 27-year-old Kyrgyzstan native is 8-1 as a professional, with six triumphs coming inside the distance.
