Ignacio Bahamondes
The UFC Seattle card will undergo a change: Samuel Sanches has been injured and is out of the event. Following his withdrawal, Ignacio Bahamondes will be the new opponent for Tofiq Musayev.
El cambio fue confirmado por Nolan King de MMA Junkie la mañana de este jueves.
“La Jaula” returns to the octagon after losing to Rafael Fiziev in the co-main event of UFC Baku. The defeat ended a three-fight winning streak. Prior to that bout, he submitted Jalin Turner at UFC 313.
Now, the experienced Chilean striker will look to return to the win column and finalize his climb back into the Top 15 of the lightweight rankings.
Musayev is coming off a debut loss by finish against Myktybek Orolbai at UFC Baku. The Azerbaijan native is best known for being a former Rizin FF champion. Tofiq is also recognized for his heavy exchanges, boasting 18 victories by way of KO/TKO.
UFC Seattle will take place on March 28 at the Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, Washington.
