A lightweight clash pitting Terrance McKinney against Ismael Bonfim has been added to the UFC 283 lineup.

McKinney announced the pairing via social media, and it was later confirmed by MMAjunkie.com. UFC 283 takes place on Jan. 21 at Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and features a flyweight title tilt between Deivesion Figueiredo and Brandon Moreno.

McKinney has won six of his last seven professional outings. The 28-year-old Spokane, Wash., native is 3-1 in UFC competition, with first-round finishes of Erick Gonzalez, Fares Ziam and Matt Frevola to his credit. His lone defeat in his last seven bouts came at the hands of Drew Dober at UFC Fight Night 203 this past March.

Bonfim, meanwhile, earned a UFC contract after besting Nariman Abbasov via unanimous decision on Dana White’s Contender Series on Sept. 6. The 26-year-old Cerrado MMA representative is 18-3 as a professional, with 12 victories coming inside the distance.
