A featherweight battle between Japanese superstar, Michihiro Omigawa and British stand-out, Jason Young has today been revealed as in the works for the UFC 138 card set to go down November 5th in Birmingham, England.
A source close to the situation revealed the news to Fighters Only Magazine earlier today. An announcement is expected shortly from the promotion.
Omigawa is looking to rebound from back-to-back decision losses to Chad Mendes and Darren Elkins, the second of which was very controversial and he was handed his win bonus by the Las Vegas based promotion.
Young made his octagon debut just last month and took a serious step up in competition when he faced top ten 145 pounder, Dustin Poirier at UFC 131. He lost the fight via unanimous decision but put up a good fight on the night.
