Northcutt (8-2) had his tonsils removed last month, and is ready to get back into the octagon. In his last outing, the 21-year-old was submitted by Mickey Gall. “Super” is 1-2 in his last three. Following a submission loss to Bryan Barberena, Northcutt returned, and took a decision over Enrique Marin at UFC 200.
Puelles (7-2) made his promotional debut last time out, and lost to Martin Bravo via second round TKO. Prior to that, the Peruvian was riding a two fight win streak with one submission and one TKO victory.
