Friday's Fight Nights Global 68 lineup set with Artem Lobov on UFC Fight Pass commentating team

The nine-bout lineup for Friday’s Fight Nights Global 68 event is complete, and a new face has been added to the broadcast booth.

Fight Nights Global officials confirmed with MMAjunkie that UFC featherweight Artem Lobov will serve as part of the commentating team for the UFC Fight Pass-streamed event at Yubileyny Sports Palace in St. Petersburg, Russia.

Fight Nights Global 68 features a heavyweight title fight between Russian prospects Sergey Pavlovich (10-0) and Mikhail Mokhnatkin (9-1-2). The two were expected to meet in March, but Pavlovich had a family emergency, which forced the rescheduling of the card.

Undefeated former Bellator heavyweight champ Vitaly Minakov (19-0) takes on UFC/Strikeforce vet Antonio Silva (19-11-1), the man better known as “Bigfoot,” in the co-feature.

Nine-time UFC veteran Nikita Krylov (21-1) also makes his promotional debut on the card.

The complete Fight Nights Global 68 lineup includes:

• Sergey Pavlovich vs. Mikhail Mokhnatkin – for heavyweight title
• Vitaly Minakov vs. Antonio Silva
• Stjepan Bekavac vs. Nikita Krylov
