A new featherweight and welterweight bout have been added to UFC Fight Night 127.
Scotland’s Danny Henry is set to welcome debuting Canadian Hakeem Dawodu at 145 pounds, while Sweden’s Oliver Enkamp will fight England’s Danny Roberts at 170, the promotion announced today.
UFC Fight Night 127 takes place March 17 at The O2 in London and streams entirely on UFC Fight Pass. These two latest bookings bring the lineup to 11 fights total.
Henry (11-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC) will ride a four-fight winning streak into his bout with the 26-year-old Dawodu (7-0-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC), who is unbeaten with one draw in eight fights over three years, all with WSOF. Henry’s winning streak includes a unanimous decision over Daniel Teymur last July in his UFC debut.
Both Enkamp (7-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) and Roberts (14-3 MMA, 3-2 UFC) will be looking to get back in the win column against each other. Enkamp suffered the first loss of his career in his UFC debut last May, dropping a unanimous decision to Nordine Taleb. Roberts, meanwhile, also lost to Taleb in his last fight, when he was knocked out in the first round at UFC on FOX 26 in December.
