Former M-1 welterweight champion Rashid Magomedov (16-1 MMA) makes his second octagon appearance in a bout against TUF Brazil competitor Rodrigo Damm (12-6 MMA) at May's TUF: Brazil 3 Finale.
UFC Fight Night: Sonnen vs. Silva takes place in Sao Paulo, Brazil on May 31.
Magomedov has in his entire career lost only once, and that to Bellator season 8 featherweight tournament winner "Frodo" Khasbulaev by split decision in Ukraine back in 2010. Then the Hand-to-Hand Russian National Champion held a nine-fight winning-streak included his UFC debut fight against Tony Martin by decision (unanimous) at UFC 169 on Feruary 1 in Newark, New Jersey.
Strikeforce veteran Damm has lost just one out of his four UFC fights, after his successful UFC debut where he needed under two minutes to submit Anistavio Medeiros, he met Antonio Carvalo who he lost to by split decision. The Brazilian won his last fight at UFC Fight Night 36 against Ivan Jorge by decision (unanimous) on February 15 in his homecountry.
