McCall (13-5-1 MMA, 3-2-1 UFC) is looking to get himself back into the title mix with a victory, and is already familiar with the champion. “Uncle Creepy” fought to a draw in his UFC debut against Demetrious Johnson during the UFC Flyweight tournament, before losing in an immediate rematch. McCall then faced Joseph Benavidez and lost the fight via decision. The 31-year-old then picked up his first UFC wins, with decision victories over Iliarde Santos and Brad Pickett. In his most recent outing, McCall lost a decision to John Lineker.
Scoggins (11-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC) was 7-0 when he signed with the UFC, and solidified himself as a solid prospect with a TKO victory over Richie Vaculik and a Decision victory over Will Campuzano. Scoggins then dropped two in a row, the first being a split decision loss against Dustin Ortiz and the second being a submission loss to John Moraga. Scoggins rebounded from the losses by putting together two more wins, both decisions over Josh Sampo and Ray Borg.
UFC 201 takes place live from the Philips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia on July 30, 2016 and is set to be headlined by a welterweight title fight between Robbie Lawler and Tyron Woodley.
