A featherweight contest between Ricardo Lamas and Chan Sung Jung has been added to UFC 214.
The promotion announced the bout on Wednesday night.
Lamas (17-5) has been on and off since his championship loss to Jose Aldo at UFC 169. After the loss, “The Bully” won two straight, decisioning Hacran Dias before submitting Dennis Bermudez. Following a stoppage loss to Chad Mendes, Lamas defeated Diego Sanchez before losing to Max Holloway. In his most recent outing, Lamas submitted Charles Oliveira.
Jung (14-4) returned to the octagon after a four year hiatus in February of this year, and made quick work of Dennis Bermudez, earning a first round TKO stoppage. Prior to his mandatory military service, which was the reason for his inactivity, “The Korean Zombie” lost to Jose Aldo.
UFC 214 takes place live from the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, on July 29. The card is set to be headlined by a light heavyweight championship fight between Daniel Cormier and Jon Jones.
